Wordless Wednesday: West African Dwarf Crocodiles

Dwarf Crocodiles Photo
"How doth the little crocodile
Improve his shining tail,
And pour the waters of the Nile,
On every golden scale!

How cheerfully he seems to grin,
How neatly spreads his claws,
And welcomes little fishes in
With gently smiling jaws!"
- Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

    Great capture! I love the one croc's eye, and how you juxtaposed this with that great poem! :)

    I love that verse you have chosen for today...so easy to learn and brings back memories of long ago.

    I will try and join in tomorrow though I am not sure what you are actually looking for. I first thought it was just photographs, but words creep in, dont they?

    I don't think I've seen one of these nor do I want to encounter one with big eyes and a big mouth like that.

Michelle of WireQueen is bequeathing a beautiful pair of clear quartz earrings to one of my readers. The design is named "Midwife Healer" in honor of the midwife that delivered her second daughter. The four sided dagger beads are different lengths and embraced by sterling silver wrap with surgical steel earwires. She has already cleared the crystals, but if you ever need to recharge or remove unwanted energy, simply place in a window that is beaming with sunlight. Michelle believes that the Creator gave to all things a purpose, including gemstones. She covers as little of the "face" of the stone as possible, but still secures it safely in its setting.
