    These are great pics, but you might want to work on your descriptions a little.

    The "reindeer kissing" are actually moose.

    The "buffaloes" are actually wildebeest.

    The "deer" seeing the sunset are actually impala.

    The "scary owl eyes" are actually Iguana eyes.

    The "weird fish" is actually a Giant Grouper

    The "white birds" are Egrets

    ... not that you would see the comments if you're using a non-microsoft browser. Looks like you're using the "alt" tag attribute where you should be using a "title" tag attribute.

    What, oh please do tell me anyone, is the white thing in the picture labeled "sea mammals"? The pics are lovely...

  9. Manatee? aka Dugong (sea cow) I believe. Looks like one has had a run-in with a boat; see the gashes in its fluke.

    These images are previous winners from Nature's Best Magazine, not from National Geographic.

    First, these are not from National Geographic. They are from the Nature's Best Windland Smith Rice International Awards Competition.

    Second, I doubt you have permission to display them, especially without credit to the photographers that made them.

    Nice to see you are not crediting the photographers - some of which I know. Plus NG does not have anything to do with NB's awards.

    Please remove this post - copyright infringement you know.

    These pictures have nothing to with National Geographic.
    The were winners of Nature's Best Windland Smith Rice International Photography Awards and I don't think you asked permission to post them, specially without giving anybody credit.

    That is a violation of US copyright laws.
    I own the rights to the Snowy Egret picture and this site in in no way authorized to display it.
