I try to take a picture of every wild animal I meet. Some are better than others (taken while driving) and some I can’t even show here, because only I know what that big black patch between the trees was (usually a bear, running faster than I could get my camera ready)…
I also tried to be as accurate as possible naming the animals. Please drop me a note, if I was wrong with one or the other. The naming will be continued soon, I had to redo the entire homepage and therefore couldn’t finish all.
