thanks for the compliments. i was experimenting that day with the macro to see what the camera could do. i think they turned out ok. the leaf cutter ants had me watching for about 20 mins, not a care in the world as long as there are leaves to be cut.
 
I saw a massive program designated only 2 those ants. It is incredible. They build massive underground cities with freekin airconditioning and everything lol. Looks like something out of the Jetsons........ The filled one up with concrete and dug it out. Took them weeks and it was like over a 1/4 size of a football field.
 
nice pics. I did a double tale on the iguana too. poor bald eagle must have done something dispicable for those braclets
 
thanks!
the parts touching the bald eagles legs are leather not metal. i would have blew my top if they were metal against its skin.
all the birds get freed from their perches every couple of hours so they can recouperate and stretch out a little.
