Well obscured contortionist up there! Great comp. with the tree growing out of the corner into the frame. Very nice application of the Laowa.

I do wonder with the breed being from the Siberian forest, if maybe it was an adaptation to protect the ears from the elements/snow.

No special purpose that I can find. Ear tufts are called "furnishings" in the breeding world from the reading I did. I haven't seen them this long in adult Siberian pictures I've seen online so have been wondering if she's going to keep them or if they will fade. I like them.

Just extraordinary. Do the hairy ears have a special purpose for this breed?

I can guess who does most of the training?

Looks like a nice place for a photo shoot. Didn't notice the sea gull at first glance. Nice capture.

Marvellous panoramic saltmarsh. Love this.

Liking the wind-blown hair.

I'm all for environmental protection, but isn't that a broken concrete slab and some cloth. Nice crab and whelks though.

Sorry to hear you're crook - hope you're on top of things again soon. This place really appeals - if I visit, I expect you to show it to me Looks like lots of interesting saltmarsh plants, and well timed on getting the gull.
