Rare T. rex sighting!!!
Did a little overnight car camping trip with my honey to the Huerfano River basin last weekend and snagged this shot of an ice floe that looked remarkably like a Tyrannosaurus rex skull. Just a fun shot, so please excuse the low quality of shooting through thick forest fire haze with a Sigma zoom lens racked out to maximum telephoto.

An albino, no doubt. There's nothing rare about T-Rex's. I see 'em every other weekend when one of the cable stations runs one of the Jurassic Park flicks. :biggrin:

Thanks a bunch, Todd. Now we won't be able to drill within a 300 mile radius of the 'discovery'. :rolleyes:

I did some drilling while I was in the area. :biggrin:
