The eyes have it...

[tpe]

Not really sure what section this should go in.

Done because of abraxas's comments here... http://thephotoforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=77566

What do you think, and are they all identifyable?

Thanks for looking...

6. octopus, no very closely related to 3 and is a land invertebrate
7. cougar, very close, known for jumping high and eating birds.
8. owl?, bahh, no, a mammal
9. insect, maybe a spider, no but is an insect
10. gecko or small gator (caiman?), close, lives near water
11. grey parrot, definatly a bird, but not a parrot

8. A mammal? Seriously?
9. butterfly?

8 is a goat (or sheep -- something similar) and 10 is a horned lizard or something of the sort. 5 looks like a mongoose, and I'm lost on the rest .

 

[BoblyBill]

DOH!!!! I'm terrible
at this game. LOL... I got one though... YES for me.

7 and 8 are going to bug FOREVER!!!!!!

8. Dog, as in Collie?

 

[BoblyBill]

You are so RIGHT... I wouldn't have thought that until you said so but you are right... I just know it.

8, yes goat
5, yes mongoose, i thought that was going to stay for ages
10, not a horned lizard (its difficult with common names, but i dont think it is ever known as a horned lizard, it has no horns at any rate), but perhaps speceis level is asking too much, it is definatly a lizard.

Damn that was 3 more done :hail:

Bill, the easy ones go first, it is only the horrid ones that get left, at least it wont be so hard work answering from now on, they are all hard i think. 7 is not a dog, but i see where you are comming from .

Nicely done, and aparently I dont know chit:er: .I do know that in the states the only domestic snakes with verticly slit pupils are venomous.Guess I shoulda kept my mouth shut:blushing: .
I do like this series of shots though , this is fun to guess at em.

 

[LaFoto]

May we only reply to this thread and comment on this impressive collage if we know the creatures who have these eyes?

OK. So I say nothing.:meh:

O.K they were a bit hard, but here are the answers

1. human with hangover
2. day gekko
3. Leaf insect
4. Cat
5. mongoose
6. stick insect
7. caracal
8. goat
9. butterfly (dont know the species
10. water dragon
11. western crowned pigion
12. White boa constrictor

Now it is going to be sooo boaring .

firemedic0135, i always wondered about that, i guess it holds in the states rahter than in africa, here it is true too but we only have one venomous snake and it is about as dangerous as a bumble bee on nectar .
