There's a difference between a full-fledged mountain goat and somebody's dog, cat, or Guinea Pig. Please .... keep the latter on Facebook or your personal website .....

Example? Let's use my own.
That is a scan of a film shot with a 300 mm lens and a 2X extender. That osprey was used to people being within throwing distance; no other osprey has ever let me get that close.
It's all a joke, Larry. SP members are more likely to vote a beach sunset by a well-known member for POTD than a photo with a diagram of the route.
And you're guilty because you vote 10 and make comments on just about anything.
