Closeup Photograph of an Armadillo

05.03.2005 - I am very pleased with this closeup photo of a handsome armadillo. Truly one of nature's lovliest creatures. Some like the colorful feathers of the peacock, or the happy smile of a bottlenose dolphin, or the cute fluffiness of a kitten, but no one can deny the rugged good looks of the Nine Banded Armadillo. Just look at that bright and inquisitive eye, or that smooth skin. How about that cute little beard, or those adorable feet? Some animals were built for rugged utility, and some were built for pure cuteness, and I have to say that the armadillo rates at least a 9.5 on the adorable scale. If you want a picture of an armadillo for your website, or an armadillo photograph for your bedroom wall or bathroom, I grant you permission to use this photo that I've taken. Just don't look at it for too long, or you could fall in love.
