Watching these regal, elegant creatures, I couldn't help thinking of the beautiful ladies perfectly dressed and coifed for the races in "My Fair Lady"!

  Thanks. I hadn't posted any pictures for a while and had forgotten all the steps when I posted this one (the first of the batch). Posted 9 years ago

    No worries, I thought you didn't set them on a lot of photos but as I came to review the next ones, it turns out it was the exception. I do realize there's some steps in properly sharing photos here, but it makes possible powerful features such as species browsing and country browsing, so it's for a good cause :) Posted 9 years ago
