You don’t need to look far to find aliens
The world abounds in strange creatures, but the babies of some of them are even odder than any adult form. I can imagine these creatures floating through the clouds of some distant gas giant, but they are in fact a pair of baby undulate rays, an endangered species whose previous range covered the Atlantic and Mediterranean from southern Britain to Guinea. These were born in captivity at the Sea Life London Aquarium as part of their breeding programme, trying to undo the damage from decades of overfishing. Adults of the species grow up to a metre in length, and lives on the sandy sea bottom in shallow waters (down to 200 metres or so). They eat small fish, crustaceans and molluscs and breed slowly, hence the attempts to increase the population with human assistance.

Saw this moose the other day taking a dirt road detour only to see a road closed sign 11 miles down the road. We turned back and as we went back by this time there was a baby moose too! Good thing the road was washed out or we would have missed out! I was abke to hurry and get a couple shots before they disappeared.

Vampire Bat
Its got a face only a mother could love and invokes fear in most! So do these scary little creatures actually drink your blood? Yes. Yes they do. Its a dietary trait called hematophagy and the Vampire Bat solely feeds on the blood of mammals. There are three species of Vampire Bat in total; The common Vampire Bat (Desmodus Rotundus), The hairy-legged Vampire Bat (Diphylla Ecaudata) and the white winged Vampire Bat (Diaemus Youngi) and are found throughout the Americas ranging from Mexico, Brazil, Chile and Argentina. The Vampire Bat’s favourite place to dwell is in dark places such as caves or tree hollows, depending on the size of the colony which can range anywhere from a few individuals to hundreds.

“2020 has been a wild year for our planet.
When Covid travel restrictions were lifted I converted my van, packed my camera gear then hit the road with my lady to see what our beautiful state Queensland has to offer. This is a snapshot of our month long adventure.
We captured these moments between the Gold Coast and Cook Town.
Enjoy!”
