Birds Nests Photography by Sharon Beals

Sharon Beals is an incredible photographer and artist. A self-proclaimed ‘urban naturalist’ that was raised in Seattle and now calls Hunters Point Shipyard in San Francisco, home. Sharon uses photography as an art form, and as a way to chronicle what moves her heart and concerns her conscience from habitat restoration and plastic in the ocean, to the ecology of rivers, and of course, birds’ nests. In her latest hardcover book ‘Fifty Nests and the Birds that Built Them’, Sharon showcases her gorgeous photographs of nests accompanied by fascinating and informative portraits of the builders themselves.

Hilarious Yoga Dogs Calendar

A golden retriever holding firm in the classic warrior pose and a Chihuahua chilling out in the pendant position are just some examples for this hilarious Yoga Dogs calendar.

Texas couple Dan and Alejandra Borris teamed up to create the immensely popular calendar featuring canines doing yoga poses. But if you hadn't guessed, professional photographer Dan has leaned heavily on photoshop to create these howling good fun pics. Relying on his wife Alejandra, a former yoga teacher and now animal practioner, to get the dogs in as close to position as possible, Dan then photographs the dogs before making adjustments in photoshop.

Dogs Walking on Two Legs

These are some very cute pictures of dogs walking on their hind legs. There's something peculiar but also very endearing about dogs that can walk upright. Maybe its because they seem all too human when they're standing on their hind legs.
