Can you find the hidden animals in these 20 wildlife photos?
OK…these are some amazing photos but in some of them I can not find the wildlife…can you????? If you can zoom in it might help.
As a wildlife photographer, Art Wolfe of course takes pictures of animals. But not just any pictures. He finds and captures scenes that include animals so at home in their environment that you can hardly tell they’re there…

Baby Hummingbird Nest
If you go to this site you can see the larger versions of all pictures! Highly recommend
These are the most AMAZING photos of a mother Hummingbird and her babies I have ever seen! Fantastic! The videos are even better!!!!
After having nesting house finches with 5 babies on my front door, a neighbor who enjoyed that saga Email’ed me about a hummingbird nest at a nearby golf course. I have some old pictures of colorado hummingbirds, but had never seen a nest.
It’s amazing how well camouflaged it is – would have never seen it if it hadn’t been pointed out to me – thanks Brian!
Be sure to scroll down as the pictures get better … and check out the Hi-Def videos at the bottom – want prints?

SALMON TIME!
Which means almost Bald Eagle season by the spawning stream, called Kanaka Creek by our house. Salmon are here and shortly after usually about 20-30 eagles hang out to feed on the dying salmon. A small spawning stream runs by our house.
Not too far away is a place called Chehalis-Harrison Estuary. This is where at times you can see over 7000 Bald Eagles at a time enjoying a free meal of Salmon between end of Oct through Dec. We are known for our Bald Eagles this time of year and it truly is an amazing sight to see. I hope to get out there this year with camera in hand.

SCENES FROM ANTARCTICA
These are just stunning….Scenes from Antarctica! Just amazing! CLICK the first picture and it will take you to the LARGE hi resolution images!
Summer is returning to Antarctica and researcher teams from around the world are heading south for the (relatively) warm season. Among them are members of a Russian team that drilled into Lake Vostok last February. Vostok is a subglacial lake some 4,000 meters below the surface of the ice, and the plan is to send a robot down there this summer to collect water samples and sediments from the bottom. Research also continues at the South Pole Telescope, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, and dozens of other locations around Antarctica. Gathered here are recent images of Antarctica, its environment, and some of the scientific work taking place there. [37 photos]

Estonia Osprey Nest = Success
I have been watching this live web cam throughout the Osprey season and the adult pair here have done a great job raising three…yes three off spring to the point where they are almost ready to migrate on their own. Plenty of fish, I am sure hunting skills the female has most likely left my now and the male stays to be their mentor.
Awesome sight and sounds. ESTONIA LIVE WEB CAM HERE

Lava Kiss: My husband and I, along with a tour guide and a group of friends, hiked up to what was formerly the Royal Gardens subdivision above Kalapana, Hawaii, where the last standing house was just recently taken over by the active lava flow. While waiting for the rain to pass, we started taking back-lit portraits of each other in front of the lava flow after I set up my camera on the tripod. For the last photo, my husband spontaneously dipped me in a kiss. It was a truly once-in-a-lifetime moment! (© Dallas Nagata White/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest) Continue reading
