What's that? It is a biped with a HUGE white eye protruding from its head that makes this clicking sound. After clicking for a while they usually go away! LOL :biggrin: Nice capture Sue. The expression on the little one is precious.

Wonderful image, Sue. I love the interaction and the humanistic quality with the paw draped over the other. :toast:
