I love that other people take photos of animals and post them on Facebook. I'll try to give credit to the photographers. Then there are the artists too! No not the animals, though I've heard certain elephants show promise with brush and canvas.

Today's quote:
"We want to be something more than the appendages of Society; we want that Woman should be the coequal and help-meet of Man in all the interest and perils and enjoyments of human life. We want that she should attain to the development of her nature and womanhood; we want that when she dies, it may not be written on her gravestone that she was the 'relict' of somebody."
Lucy Stone, (1818-1893) abolitionist and suffragist, one of the original Transcendentalists, at the first national Women's Rights Convention opened in Worcester, Massachusetts, on Oct. 23, 1850.
Sharing with Saturday's Critters.
Great&fun collection!
ReplyDeleteWell we came a bit near but in some countries I do not see it happen that women will ever be treated equal...
There is truth unfortunately that world wide, some places will continue traditional second class treatment of it's women.
DeleteYour searching yielded many delightful images. It would be hard to pick a fave, but I will mention the cat in the snow.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, isn't that one fun? I didn't think the snow was fake either!
Delete...Barbara, you have come up with a FABULOUS collection!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks...as you also had critters from art today !
DeleteHello Barb,
ReplyDeleteI love each and everyone of your critter images. It is hard to pick a favorite. Great quote by Attenborough! Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend.
Yes, that quote was very timely, to arrive in my FB posts last week. Now FB is just a mishmash of things that I have little interest in. Who knows if it will continue to be a source of material for my posts here!
DeleteSuch wonderful animal pictures!
ReplyDeleteGlad to share them with you. I wish I had some real animals in my life to capture.
DeleteMy favourite is the dog and mouse.
ReplyDeleteThat National Geographic group has had some really fantastic photos!
DeleteI love Beatrix Potter and we just watched the movie...again! What an imagination that has delighted us for years. Love all the beautiful art you've shared...the giraffe, horse and foxes! All of them!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got as much of a kick out of this art as I did! B. Potter's movie Miss Potter, is definitely up on my list of favorites too.
DeleteHard to pick a favorite.
