I never really understand why there should be one day specially dedicated to animals (or mothers or fathers for that matter). I think it would be a good idea to think about our animals (or mothers and fathers for that matter) every day of the year…

But now we’ve got an Animal Day, here a picture of my favourite Teddy bear.

(For the Dutch readers: op natuurfotografie.nl heb ik voor Dierendag een artikel geschreven over de IJsbeer met fotografietips.)
