Right off the bat let me apologize for the graininess of the photos I'm about to present. I was messing around with my point-n-click's settings (apparently it has some) yesterday and forgot to reset it.
While I was off in Toronto, where there's no snow to speak of, winter marched on in Ottawa. I arrived back to find a new and improved dragon over on Roger Wilson's lawn. This one is busy fending off some kind of Holmwood-haunting-eel (probably came up out of the canal inlet).
Once again, amazing details. The pictures really don't do it justice. I hope someone out there with a better camera and more photog skills is taking pictures of this too!
Dragon #2 has a spiky, icicle-hawk, flared "gills" (I don't really know my dragon anatomy), up-raised wings, massive talons, and is chomping down on a writhing sea-creature.
Mmmm... Tastes cold.
Wouldn't want to meet guy this while out in my rubber dinghy on Dow's Lake!
Here's the tail section. Unfortunately it got snowed on and is somewhat obscured right now. I'll head back out for more pictures when conditions improve.
Late Edit: Here's full-frontal picture showing a bit more detail. AND, in a strange twist of fate, Roger Wilson (the creator of the snow zoo) heard about my blog via his sister in the UK and wrote a comment to me on the original post! Weird how that worked out: neighbours connected cyberly through someone across the ocean!
