Autumn at the zoo

[urbpan]

I never get over the loveliness of a carpet of sugar maple leaves.




More dog stinkhorns popping up! The unpleasant greenish mass is the stinking spore mass that the flies come to visit.


Not far away, some real dogs.


One alert, the other napping.


The other alert, one napping.

thanks for these! wild dogs?

Yep! African wild dogs, sometimes "hunting dogs" or "painted dogs." I love them.

I agree with you about the leaf carpet. Such generous colors. And those wild dogs are looking pretty laid back, all things considered.

Wow! very eye pleasing pictures. I think its the autumn that makes the environment so beautiful and fresh. I can also notice Hyena feeling this fresh nature around him.
