Alright, so I know many people (including myself) are pretty stressed out right now. We all need a break to have some fun. So I thought I'd start this thread, where we each post a picture of any animal (fish, bird, mammal, invertebrate, etc.) and underneath the pic, say the species or breed. BUT you have to go in order so make sure you post the next letter that follows after what the last person posted! I'll start off with 'A', then the next post will be an animal starting with 'B', and so forth. Remember, you can post different breeds in order to get the letter you need (i.e. Schnauzer can count as 'S' instead of 'D' for Dog, etc. if you want to)

HAVE FUN! AND KEEP YOUR PICTURES SMALL! (I use tinypic.com after resizing my pics to get my image code)

For future reference it's [ img ] then the link [ /img ] but without the spaces. You can quote a post with an image in it to see how it's set up.

Or, there's a little button in the bar above the box where you're typing a message (near the bold, italic, & font color options) that looks a little bit like Mt. Fuji with the sun in the background. Just click that and enter the picture's URL there (which you find by right clicking the picture and choosing "properties.") 🙂

Also if you're using Firefox just right click the image and select 'Copy Image Location'.

I <3 Firefox.

(By the way, internet etiquette really dictates that you shouldn't directly post images while they are hosted on others' webspace, because it uses bandwidth that the person may not be aware of and some hosts charge for excess bandwidth)
 
I think that this time around we need to use double letters:

Aardvark

Big Brown Bat (OK, OK, that's three B's)

twelve and stealth: Which do you prefer: Cardigan Welsh or Pembroke? Or both?

Dwarf Hotot

Lets make this more challenging!! The next animal has to "beat" the previous one (if possible)!

And doesn't have to be Predator and Prey... be creative

Or... just do it to old way 🙂
