Can't be teal. No one's swimming around looking for the duck underwater.

Beautiful dog! Is she/he a Saluki?

Yes he is. He belongs to NAFA's Mountain Director Paul Domski.

[Saluqi]

Yes he is. He belongs to NAFA's Mountain Director Paul Domski.

Yup, and in the photo he was scared sh!tless of some unmannered Vizsla!

Just an interesting tree we can upon while out hawking!

[/

Is that a cottonwood tree the skulls are around ?
Looks to be a ceremonial placing , either crow , Cheyenne or Lakota would be my guess . The ram , mule deer and bison horns are sacred medicine to the holymen of those tribes , was there any color fabric in small ties around it as well. The Cottonwood is a sacred ceremonial tree as well .

My family is practicing traditional Lakota from SD and that grouping is all too familiar around family lodges and homesteads .
Nice find !

I"m not sure if you are referring to these specific skulls or just in general, but those are white tail deer skulls/and that's not a buffalo skull.

I didn't take too many pictures... but here's a panoramic picture from my iPhone at the banquet. Great turnout...

Speaking strictly from the experience of my own and only a very few other Vizsla's, I think they are all unmannered when it comes to introducing themselves to other dogs! My girl insists that every single dog she meets wants to be run up to and licked incessantly in the mouth...

[Chris L.]

Great pictures guys! It was cool to live through what others were seeing. I will compile a poll tomorrow with all of the pictures to see who won.

Thank you again to all those who participated in this it was fun!

Hang on! I got a couple more! lol...
This one was at the gas station by the meet hotel...EVERYone was getting their cell phones out for this, lol.

[michaelberan]

I have a couple questions?

Why is the gorilla blind folded?

Where is that giraffes head?

Did Brian have fun with this picture?

[Tasha55403]

Pmsl, we ALL had fun with this one! Sadly though, I have no answers for you, only questions also...Whoever loaded these was downright twisted though, lol.

Anyone know what the turn out was for the meet?

Isn't it obvious? The giraffes head is up the elephants ass. The gorilla put on the blindfold because he could not take it any more. Yes, I had a BLAST for about 20 minutes with this at the gas station. Literally tears in my eyes thinking of the possibilities.

[Tasha55403]

The zebra is a prude and doesn't want anything to do with it, but the rhino is a voyeur and can't help but peek...

[colelkhunter]

like I said, so many ways to go with this picture. So many possibilities. This is surely the winner of the T-shirt. Hands down.

I dunno...it IS awesome and COMPLETELY random, but the one with you winning the transmitter-that's just irony in the extreme, lol

So that was Pitcher's peregrine that was last to leave the weathering area on Friday!

As for Jeff- "Hear no evil". Although he certainly seems to be thinking about something- maybe the zoo animals?

Santiago, Dianne Moller, Al Ross and Ed Pitcher with his leucistic tiercel peregrine...

What's the story with this piebald peregrine? CB or wild taken or? Never seen or heard of this in a peregrine before, kinda neat looking!

Ed said it occasionally happens in cassenis. gets whiter each year. was normal color as immy. just out of the chamber for the year. Think he said it was 3, but could be mistaken.

[Dirthawking]

Not to sure what is actually going on here:





Brandi and I went shopping for stuff to make her chili. Found this in the meat section. Gee.....



This bird is going to be so confused when it comes time to incubate:



HEHEHEHEHE:



It is not just the birds that enjoy some weathering yard time!

Thanks, that makes the whole 'pallid falcon' thing make sense.
