Bird

DSC_9272

As noted earlier, birds are dinosaurs. Back when they were dinosaurs, it was much harder to get shots like this because of the size issue. The larger a creature is, the more light you need to freeze the action. This shot was possible with a small bird using only two small flash units. Doing this with a large dinosaur would have required at least ten flash units, an assembly of light trees to position them properly, a very large piece of fruit and the invention of photography.

Monkey

This monkey made the mistake of reading the comments and now has some hard questions to ask about humans.

Eyelash Viper (Bothriechis schlegelii)

Eyelash Viper (Bothriechis schlegelii)_2

This snake is only half-ripe. You should wait until the majority of the snake turns an orangish red before picking it.
