I love the way that you captured them walking in synch. The Nature photos take ones breath away. Amazing photographers and opportunities. rags

Great shots of the cat and the water dog, Sandra. I still like your cats synchronized walking shot best.
Those pups sure do look as if they'd like to be out herding sheep too. The sheep don't look very impressed with the sheep dog, though. LOL!
