Hi Thunder Head and Andrew

Any nature photo will do, obviously one of your own, but besides that you can post any picture that you regard as something special.

The sun set would definitely qualify as a great photo thanks for sharing please feel free to post some more!

Andrew LOL I can’t answer your question yet we will have to see in a few months time.

Best regards

That's what my PH said was this look I was getting from this Buffalo. I thought it appropriate.

Got your back....

This picture actually contains two rhinos standing rear end to rear end. I'm no expert, but I got the impression this was a defensive stance by these two to cover each other's backs.

Until this guy posts something on pay it forward free I would avoid him at all costs.

If it hasn't sold by next week I might be interested. Stock would have to be changed along with some other items. I'm already having a 416 Rigby built so money is a tad bit tight.

Hey pal! I'll take all the .375 bullets if they're available.
Thanks!
