Here are some of the winners of Daily Mail Wildlife Photographer of the Year. I will put them in separate posts to caption, comment or just enjoy

First up The Grand Prize Winner      "marmot startled by hunting fox"

That Marmot’s a goner!
There was a little girl,
            Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
            When she was good,
            She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.

Gotta have penguins    "The Huddle"

More than 5,000 emperor penguins huddle against the wind and late winter cold on the sea ice of Antarctica's Atka Bay, in front of the Ekström Ice Shelf

Definitely a real 'WTF' moment. Not sure PD. Let's hope he just fired off a mini jet pack

I need advice. Season change has been really bad on my hands already... They're dried out to the point I found small tears when I sanitized my hands yesterday.... I've tried generic aloe lotion but my skin just sucked it up to no affect....  :'(

I'm exchange, I offer cats in hats.

You need to write a letter to Mrs Thompson.
Are we having fun yet?

Dear @SpookPumpkin ,

Regukar coconut oil will work fast. 

Shea butter and emu oil are both very effective.

Unless you are engaged.

SpookPumpkin, I say cut your hands clean off, start a new. That's what I do.

A lotion with glycerin works well. Also I find Shea butter works nicely, but the trick is to put it on at night with cotton gloves (or socks would work in a pinch). Stay away from mineral oil, the molecules are too big to effectively penetrate the skin. Jojoba Oil works nicely- again at night when you go to bed with cotton cover. If you don’t mind the pain you can go with some of the cracked or chapped hand cream geared at working men. It’ll hurt though and there’s better ways. Also, stay away from antibacterial soap- it will devastate your skin.
