Thanks Pinetrees, just back back from Maui and enjoyed all the wildlife and especially the turtles.

This one came right up to me as I was snorkeling Mala Warf looking for reef sharks.
Excuse the poor video, I was coming up for air and the turtle caught me by surprise.

I am guessing this one was about 150lbs, but they can get up to 400lbs.

Anyone want some hummingbirds? I have plenty to spare. There are two more feeders I couldn't get in the pic...

Going thru tons of sugar.

I guess its true what they say-you need to have at least 3 hummingbird feeders if you want alot of hummingbirds to come and visit. I just have one and a very aggressive hummingbird that sits on a branch and just waits for another one to come for a drink. When one comes anywhere near the feeder it divebombs it to scare it away, then goes back on watch duty. Beautiful picture of all the hummingbirds.

Thanks for the nice comments!

These were shot at the San Diego Zoo. Pandas are only at a few zoos in the U.S. and only on loan for a considerable lease price paid to China.

I have seen them at the National Zoo (D.C.) and plan on making a trip to Atlanta this Summer. That will leave only one U.S. "panda zoo" that I know of on the list, Memphis.

I still need to make it to Forever Wild.
