BPSquirrel,
Is that a Pyr I see there?

We lost our Reina last November. Very sad day. She was 10. She died of bone cancer. But, I credit her with saving the lives of many WW dogs, as she was one of the first diagnosed with heartworm in the area. You may have seen my post that started a rather lengthy thread here.

PM me if you have any info on any good breeders in the area, as we are interested "replacing" Reina.

BTW, were is this massive heard of sheep?

From the archives (note the pre "Caltrans improvements" look).  Storm's pour over the ridge at Mountain Top as they move from the Valley to the Desert.

My guess would be Great Pyrenees. They are a breed that was developed to blend in with the sheep

Sorry, I have been out of town and had missed the posts about the Dog. I believe it is a Great Pryn. The herd was at 95th East and Ave Q in Littlerock, they have since moved on to "greener" pastures, lol. I belong to a yahoo group Calboers ( Boer Goats) and alot of peopke have them as LGD for their goat herds. And I know there are several that had pups for sale recently, I can send anyone the information that is interested.

Cool shots....
Anyone know how to get flies out of bushes?  I have been spraying them to no avail (junipers).

Nice pics indeed, everyone.  Thanks for sharing.  SD, do you know what kind of plant that is, in the above photo, that is about to burst into bloom?  Can't help you with the fly issue, but that shrub is going to be gorgeous.

Great shot...you should enter it into one of  the challenge groups I moderate on Flickr.  Pick Your Poison

It will have to beat 5 shots just to make it to the pool.

I was inspired by the flower shots. I was shooting some roses at my mom's house and this little guy just popped out.

A little flowering cactus I saw on the road by my house.A lot of little bugs living in it.


Doesn't seem like many people are visiting the "Photo Room" these days.
