One for the bird-lovers. The Steller's Jay - the official provincial bird of British Columbia. Beautiful bird to look at but annoying as hell to listen to. :P

Lovely image :O

Now, the Royal Society of Biology has revealed the winners of its Photographer of the Year award for 2018. One of the stand-out entries was this picture of a leopard gecko, taken by 17-year-old Jack Olive, which won him the Young Photographer of the Year prize:

The rest of them can be found here. Some of them are pictures of plants, but there are some great animal pics in here too!

Wonderful photo! I love the detail on that :D

Those workshops sound rather expensive, though. For that money, they'd better be very good!
