Little did I know that this week’s theme of Animals would turn into a stampede of wonderful entries that have just kept on coming in! Thank you to all of you, as you have made this a banner week for the TPC; of course, I feel no pressure to come up with an equally good theme for next week 🙂
I should have known that animals are near and dear to all of us, across the entire globe. Often, they provide our connection to Nature, which is essential to maintain, as we stay in touch with the planet that we inhabit. Please, go and check out these wonderful posts and let the authors know how much you enjoy them!
These animals are also looking to find their way into your hearts…
This image is what happens when you try to take a landscape photo of a farm and the cows spot you; they must have thought that I was some kind of famous photographer, who was there to increase their celebrity among cows!
