Black swans are some native Australians They come up really close and they will feed out of your hands, they can be quite big, a good sized male is about the same size as I am when I crouch down to take their pics We attracted these beauties with a bit of bread though they stuck around for quite a while even after the food had run out, they were very co-operative just standing and posing for my camera

Hey, do you know the Australian Bunyip legend? It can turn people into black swans. 0_o

Erm... never heard of that, and I live here

The Bunyip is a mythical beast that is our version of a lake/swamp monster as opposed to the Yowie which is our version of Bigfoot.

Yeah, it can cause flood waters to rise very high, and anyone who touches the water will supposedly turn into a black swan.

Must be WA or NT version of the legend, certainly not common here in VIC.

Just made "Lost Pleo" my wallpaper. InmemoryofRomeo, are the pictures you use from Australia?

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #33 on:** March 09, 2009, 11:31:41 PM »

Thank you

The top one isn't Aussie, that is a Californian red wood grove

The bottom one is my Nan's garden

49er · « **Reply #34 on:** March 10, 2009, 12:05:28 AM »

I didn't know if you had redwoods down under or not. So I got your Nan's garden. Anything in the garden that would attract a pleo out into the "wilds"?

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #35 on:** March 10, 2009, 12:14:42 AM »

If we do have any redwoods they would be imported, we do have some lovely ancient rainforest in Tasmania though

They were used in the walking with dinosaurs film.

Plenty of tasty herbage to tempt a Pleo in my Nan's garden, especially in the fern patch

Yet again, you simply amaze us!! I love the 'garden scene'. I'll be sure to save it. It looks as if it might even be a **real** pic!! (But knowing you, I have the feeling you made this one.) ;-)

Lol in the words of tony the tiger "They'rrrrre GREAT"

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #38 on:** March 12, 2009, 05:05:35 PM »

Lol I had to google Tony the Tiger

We don't have that cereal here to my knowledge

Yep it is another 'made' pic

If I put a real Pleo there it would be about the same height as the bottom layer of rocks

Once my new Pleo arrives I am going to experiment with some photography in the outdoors

(Not long now YAY it arrives on the 19th

)

Celebrating the impending arrival of my new Pleo with a very up close piccy

(For those of you who aren't super with computer images you can right click on the picture and choose copy image location and paste that into your address bar to bring up a picture that can be enlarged, which is better for larger monitors)

awwwwwwwwwwww. How cute!

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #42 on:** March 12, 2009, 06:33:12 PM »

Thanks

Lol they look HUGE on my 17inch widescreen

PLEOGALINBC · « **Reply #43 on:** March 12, 2009, 06:34:35 PM »

I love the flower.

Looks like the pleo is thanking the bee for the flower. Cute! Cute!

Hi InmemmoryofRomeo,
I kept right clicking on a bunch of different occasions trying to get this picture, but "copy image location" just didn't show. I mostly use Internet Explorer and when I switched to FireFox it worked fine. If you keep coming up with these great shots my lap top is going to get confused.

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #46 on:** March 13, 2009, 01:00:31 AM »

Sorry I never use IE

Oh, my! That barely gives you time to work on a costume!

InmemoryofRomeo · « **Reply #48 on:** March 13, 2009, 09:22:53 PM »

I'll stay up all night if I have to

But it runs until April 4th so I should be able to make one (or two) by then

gucci_boi7782 · « **Reply #49 on:** March 15, 2009, 12:31:35 PM »

Hehe I can't wait until your new Pleo gets here. That was such a culture-shock to have heard someone saying "I had to Google Tony The Tiger to see what you're talking about" LMAO
