***May Contest Theme***

Congratulations to Grumpy Old Guy for taking the two top spots in last months contest. He gets to pick the theme and has decided it will be "Critters of the World"

For further direction, this would include any and all creatures, as long as they're not personal pets. They have to be wild. It could be mammals, reptiles, amphibians, birds, fish or other sea life, bugs, insects, or any life forms I've forgotten. Zoos, wildlife refuges and sanctuaries, butterfly and bird exhibits, etc. would all be OK. Just no personal pets.

I will open up the submission thread on May 15th.

Mike

They aren't wild animals but they aren't pets, either. I have a couple of good photos of cows. Do they count?

You are very kind dear Soph. I have my favorite genres, but I'm not good at everything.

Since I can't enter this contest, do you think it would be okay if I just shared some of my wildlife pics in a separate thread?
