Will you look at that cute little, lazy piggy. :)
I love his big ears and his suspicious glance.
Nice one Gary.

Being completely off topic...

I learned a few years ago that pigs have no neck and thus can't look at the sky.

I know, it's pointless knowledge, but for a city guy like me, it's sort of interesting trivia...

nice one gary - makes you want to tickle his belly ....

here's my pig shot .... I find it a bit sad as the farmer told me they were going to become sausages the next day, so this little piggy is no more (kind of hurts if you're a veggy)  :'(

Great shot, as always Leon.
But now I'm so sad about this cute little piggy who went to the market.

Ah gee.  These little piggies are so sweet.  And, I feel sorry for them, that they may never see the sky. 

Leon, your piggy shot is very sad.  :(

I have never seen a pig in real life. Seriously. Except for the one that's sleeping in the next room.

Look at the boobs on that one gal...jeesh. These are all really great captures. Pigs are intelligent cute little creatures and probably cleaner than you and I. Well, you, anyhow...

Yep, I love piggies too. Here are a couple of snaps from a while ago. These pigs are Spanish.

I also read a truly fascinating book on pigs and related animals last year called, 'The Whole Hog: Exploring the Extraordinary Potential of Pigs' by Lyall Watson. Definitely worth picking up if you're a pig person.
