What is the cutest animal photo you have ever seen or taken?

Asked by john65pennington (29258points) September 4th, 2011

I rarely ask questions about animals, but this one photograph has blown me away. It’s about a hummingbird protecting its feeder. Just two years ago, I placed my first hummingbird feeder in my yard and this has made me a “bird watcher”. I have even subscribed to a hummingbird magazine, which leads to my question. Hummingbirds are very fast and protect their own feeder. Some go to the extreme in their ability to keep others away. They attack each other and bump chests, in order to save their “stash”. This one photograph, in this magazine, was so cute that it just blew me away, looking at it. It was one lonely little bird, asleep, hanging upside down on its protected feeder. Now, that is dedication to your food. Question: are there other animal photos out there, just as cute as this one little protector in the night?
