Aquatic Desert

This incredible photo was taken off Vancouver Island on the West coast of North America. There are many tiny islands around Vancouver Island, and you can find schools of Orca Whales by travelling through the waters between the islands. The Orca, otherwise known as the Killer Whale, is a toothed whale belonging to the Aquatic Dolphin family. 

Seeking Tentacles

This stunning photo depicts a sea anenome, a water-dwelling predatory animal. Contrary to popular opinion the animal is named after the 'anenome' flower rather than the other way around. Sea anenomes are related to coral, jellyfish, hydra and tube-dwelling anenomes.

This cute image shows an Australian Koala and her joey, taken in 2005 in Port Douglas, Australia. Koalas are marsupials found in coastal regions of Oceania. Koalas, like Kangaroos, develop their joey in a pouch until 6 months old, at which time they venture out into the world, but stay close to their mother, usually riding on her back. 

Quaint and Curious

The Grey Jay is a small bird native to mountain tree regions. They tend to be very friendly to humans, especially since they depend on novel food sources. Such familiarity has resulted in a number of different nicknames, lumberjack, meat-bird, camp robber, moose-bird, venison-hawk, gorby, and, as I call these bold birds, the Whiskey Jack.

Sinister Tree

This image was taken in Devon, England, in 2010. It depicts a murder of crows roosting in late fall, because in a large group they are better protected against predators such as the owl. Crows only roost in large numbers in fall and winter before dispersing during the breeding season.
