Photo Hunt... Playing Catch-up

This has been an incredibly busy week or two around here, and my blogging has taken a hit. I totally missed last week's Photo Hunt, and I'm late for this week's. For those of you still visiting, here are my photos from the past two weeks.

Last week's theme was: Practical. I took this photo at Hagerman Wildlife Refuge, not too far from our house. Vultures (these are Black Vultures) are very practical birds, eating anything available to them for survival. They are even immune to botulism, one of the deadliest of toxins. (I also happen to find the Black and Turkey Vultures' defense mechanism of projectile vomiting to be both fascinating and amusing.)

This week's theme was: Pink. I took this photo at the Dallas-Ft.Worth Zoo. It is one of my favorite photos. (More birds... hmmmm... one would think I liked birds or something.)
