These guys look they should be singing acappella or something.

I took this picture at the High Desert Museum in Bend, OR.
Kento’s Dumb Update:
Remind me a bit of these guys from Banjo-Kazooie.

Ugly? Adorable? Uglorable!

Blue crabs are pretty cool. We found this one at the estuary near Puerto PeƱasco in Mexico during Spring Break. We got to go out there with someone from CEDO.
This crab had attitude! Trying to catch it was a whole bunch of excitement in itself… There was a lot of chasing in a creek involved (those fin-like back legs make it FAST in water!), and when Emily grabbed it it pinched her.
Then when we released it, which is what the picture is… It just sat there and started eating!

A few weeks ago, I found an photograph that Emi took of a group of walruses, and I thought it could be used so perfectly as the climax for the epic Bucket Saga.
I sent it to I Can Has Cheezburger, a blog that my sister and I have a love-hate relationship with (mainly I love it, she hates it), hoping they’d post it on their site, but they haven’t yet. Perhaps I shouldn’t have sent it as an attachment, perhaps they just get a lot of emails (it’s amazing, they’re less than three months old, but they get at least 25,000 hits a day, and they’re about to be reach the top 1,000 blogs on Technorati’s ranking system), but they haven’t posted it yet.
I kind of like it a lot, so I thought I’d share it.

Update: lol lukit sweet rite?

I actually think regular-style catfish are more uglorable, but this catfish of the albino-variety sure is interesting. Italics.

Oh no, I can’t seem to stop.

This isn’t an image macro blog, I swear.

Emi’s going to kill me…
You can look at the originals by clicking the images. Okay, okay, I’ll… stop.

Ahahahaha, I love it when a creature is both interesting and has a funny expression on its face.

But of course, as a product of the internet, I can’t let this one go without making an image macro…

What? No, I’m not someone who posts too many pictures of underwater creatures…

First Squishy, and now this guy….
I know Bloat is the puffer fish, but if Nemo were puffer, he would look like this.

Jellyfish don’t have faces, do they?
But then, I don’t know that jellyfish are exactly ugly either… I guess some people probably think they are. It’s kind of like “I kind of think that’s pretty, but I don’t really know why because all it is is a gelatinous thing floating around with tentacles that can sting you….”. So I guess they’re kind of ugly in that they are not really anything else…. That may be stretching it, but whatever.
The point is, it doesn’t have a face AND it’s cute!
There’s something very charming about a little jellyfish by itself. I can just hear it saying “I’m going on an adventure!”.

Some things you find looking through the 100 most recent uploads are actually really good!
I wish I knew what kind of fish it is, but I’m not that good……
