Oh, You Animal!

An animal's eyes have the power to speak a great language.

Hmm, it looks like their backsides do, too.

My new The Opposite of Indifference project: putting together themed collections. There are over 600 posts on this blog, so there's a lot to cull from. Hope you find something you like!

First up, animals. Although I'm aware that humans are animals, I am not including them in this list, as that would make a not very interesting or useful list...
