"Don't look at me in that tone of voice, young man"

[JASMAZ77]

So ok how do i upload my wildlife shot?

[noelcmn]

JASMAZ77- There are a few ways- the best is to post them to a host website such as Flickr, Photobucket, Tinypic, Ipernity and a few others. Alternatively, you can utilize your space on Pentax Forums, and post there. You can even create albums here or simply post to your gallery (my activity/albums or gallery) .
Once you have done that, you click on the link to the photo. For Tinypic and Photobucket and Pentax FOrums this will usually be bracketed with [IMG]. For Flickr, use the BBCode that usually start with [URL. Not sure about Ipernity as I have not used it much.
The copied link is then posted here.
Hope that helps

Turtle. Looks as though this one has lost part of its forefoot, but I think it's just the way it has it's hand against the rock.

Cool, now we look forward to seeing your images!

I think that's a Red-crested Cardinal (Paroaria coronata). You're right that is not native to Hawaii (it's from South America). Most of the bird species in Hawaii were introduced from other parts of the world. Most of the individual birds alive in Hawaii today are members of those introduced species. Most of the native species are extinct.

Alternatively, it might be a Yellow-billed Cardinal (Paroaria capitata). That species looks very similar and was also introduced to Hawaii.

I think you are correct, although the bird is trying hard to hide it's identity.

Bring on the pictures. Entertain me.

Here are two of the hook-lipped rhinos we encountered on our last day of walking. They walked off around the bend of the river quite quickly. And as I said, we ran off even more quickly once dad arrived on the scene

Doing as you suggest is fine

But if I am not mistaken, the exif data link is not accessible

Hook lip = black rhino

Square lip = white rhino

Difference the first is a browser the other is a grazer

According to my research

Exactly so. The "white" and "black" naming is a bit of a misunderstanding, though. The Dutch/Afrikaans word "wijd" (meaning wide) was misinterpreted as "white" by some doofus. And since the other kind of rhino was slightly darker in colour it seemed sort of logical to name it "black".

I find the hook-lip and square-lip names much more descriptive. The hooked lip can be used like a small trunk to grab twigs when browsing.

Here's an illustration from dinoanimals.com:

Exactly what my research says

One other difference

When fleeing, one species leads the young, the other trails the young

Which I cannot remember right now

[WPRESTO]

So, based on the shape of my lips, am I supposed to graze or browse?
