Basic Guidelines: In the strictest sense, nature photography should not include "hand of man elements". Please refrain from images with buildings or human made structures like roads, fences, walls. Pets are not permitted. Captive subjects in zoos, arboretums, or aquariums are permitted, but must be declared, and must focus on the subject, not the captivity. Images with obvious human made elements will likely be deleted from the thread, with an explanation to the photographer. Guidelines are based on PSA rules governing Nature photography which also cover the Nature Forum. Keep your image at/under 1000 pixels on the long axis for in-line viewing. Note that this includes photos hosted off-site at Flicker, Photobucket, your own site, etc.

 

Each member please post no more than just one image to this weekly thread per week.

Still very early in the season for migratory waterfowl. Nevertheless, these Trumpeter Swans were captured over the Bear River MBR last weekend, most likely en route to their summer nesting grounds much further north.

These Spotted Hyenas were found close to their den (Tanzania). Their spots seem less discernible than some of the others I saw.

 

Hyenas are often maligned in folklore. Yet, is it their sense of humor ("laughing hyenas") or that there's a sympathy for the underdogs in us that somehow make them endearing to some?
