Animals are one of my favorite photo subjects, lets share our encounters with them.
Great Challenge topic!!! And I like your first posts. Especially the beavers.
I'm going to take your "encounters" with animals a bit literally.
I didn't take these pictures but they were taken from a video that the tour took. I'm pretty sure the first person is me and the second is my sister. They swam toward you and I tried to act like other manatees, rolling and grazing them as they seemed to float by.

One of my favorite pictures from a visit to Sea World.

Those “White Thoated Sparrows” apparently winter just south of us and breed just north of us. I have seen one once - it made a food stop in our yard during 2021 migration season. Those yellow markings by their eyes are very memorable if you ever see one - but it took time for me to identify it.

It wasn’t singing - it gobbled down seed, then continued its flight.
