pallas_athenaSome photos:
A bat skimming a pond (apologies for the Daily Mail link, but it had the most photos, including an interesting one of the photographer's setup.)
Many, many polar bears.
Neil Gaiman's bookshelves! The photos enlarge to the point where you can read the titles.
Neil Gaiman really needs to write a book about a bat and a polar bear who... uh... never meet because they can't live in the same climate zone... OK, maybe not.

on 2009-09-21 11:23 am (UTC)See high above the polar bear, the bat
Who flutters in the crystal Arctic air,
Marvels at ice fields, smooth and white and flat,
Shivers, so far away from meadows fair.
'My little guest', quoth bear then in alarm
'While it may bring me joy to see thee here
I would not wish the cold to cause thee harm
Come nestle in the fur behind my ear'.
'Gramercy dear friend bear,' the bat replied
'I shall indeed repose in your warm coat.
I did not think the oceans were so wide
I think perhaps I should return by boat.'
'Most wise', said bear, 'To England with all haste!
Hence we'll commune, dear friend, in cyberspace.'
