America A great view from the Bright Angel Trail at the Grand Canyon.

Has anyone been on the Grand Canyon Skywalk (the glass walkway that lets you step over the void and gaze downward)? If so - what was it like, and is it worth a special trip?

(as always click "Like" to let us know if you like this sort of photo; and "Share" to repost)

America Very unusual for one of my animal pics, but I just found this guy on a pet adoption site and had to share it. He's probably the sweetest dog ever, but it's tough to get adopted when you look that mad (as an adoptee myself, I know!)

Of course, his name is "Snoopy"...

I can't decide if he looks more like Alice Cooper, Gene... Simmons, or King Diamond. Whatcha think? And should I adopt him on principle?

(ps for the full effect click the picture & see it fullsize).

America Why choose between mountain life and country life when you can have it all? Hay bales under golden light near the San Juan range of the Rocky Mountains...

Do you have a favorite American (or foreign) mountain range?

America The Wolf Spider: found throughout the US (and the world).

Their eight eyes (including the two prominent large ones) have great vision- useful as they're hunters. They bite humans fairly rarely. Their bites may itch, but aren't dangerous

Do you like seeing creepy-crawlies, or do you prefer mammals & landscapes?

(& apologie...s to "Earth" subscribers for the 're-run.' I actually posted this over there by mistake!)

America A bunch of people messaged asking how to join the "Earth" page I posted yesterday. Sorry I was vague! This'll make it easy - just click below, then click "Become a Fan" at the top of the next page...

Again: it's an image a day of natural vistas. The membership's about 7% Americans, 93% International. Lots of languages i...n the comments!

Sorry 'bout the repost. We now return you to your regular programming...

America The European Pine Marten - A visitor from "Earth."

By this I mean my other FaceBook page, which covers the full planet with daily images.

Recent ones are here: http://tr.im/OurFE. You can join the Page here: http://tr.im/sVz7

Thanks for being patient with this brief mention. And there's American Marten too, so there's a connection!

America Lake St. Mary in Montana's beautiful Glacier National Park...

Do you have a favorite national park?

As always, please click 'Like' if you like this photo so that we can know, & better serve you...

And last, I think I've (finally) figured out how to designate a picture that I've just posted to work with the "Share" button ...(you'd think it would be automatic, huh?)

America Kudos & unending glory to the first person to correctly name the state where this photo was taken!

UPDATE: Sue Bione-Grevious was the first person to say "Oregon," Kelsey Marina Riddle was first to note specifically that it's the Chitwood Bridge. Unending glory to them both!

America 1st, sorry the badger picture posted twice yesterday. I have no idea why - I wasn't even online the second time!

2nd, thanks to all who reminded me of the "Badger Badger" song. For those who don't know it - it's silly, it's bizarre, and it's here: http://tr.im/ssYl

3rd, Oregon's awesome Multnomah falls.

What are the pret...tiest falls you've seen?

America The American badger. Ours is one of eight distinctive badger species found throughout the world.

Have you ever seen one of these guys in the wild?

And who can name the state that has the badger as its official state animal?

America Thanks to all who tested ShowingAmerica.com and our Facebook login there. Verdict - it's semi-working! Improvements to come...

And, sea lions sunning in Moss Landing, CA. Far from shy, some sea lions hang out on piers in big cities (e.g. San Francisco)!

Have you seen one in the wild, or in an urban habitat? Comment here, or at ShowingAmerica.com
