There are three interlaced life cycles in this illustration. The first is the fish. It starts in the bottom left corner - the eggs, and <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">develops</span> in an anticlockwise circle and ends with the large fish next to the eggs eating the Mayfly <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">larvae. The </span>Mayfly is the second cycle that starts on the left. The eggs and hatchlings are on the rock behind the large fish. The cycle progresses again in and anticlockwise circle moving to the front of the image so more detail can be seen. As the hatchlings develop they swim to the water's surface and grow morph into flys. The cycle is complete as there is a mayfly on the water laying the original eggs. The third is the Kingfisher seen catching a fish and feeding its young in the den.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/61933770893615640-2659390794254719766?l=andreafisher.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Andrea Fisherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06187883219961625838noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-61933770893615640.post-17770213689599882962010-01-27T12:12:00.000Z2010-01-27T12:16:00.921Z<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ikPowDoKXbE/S2At0COr22I/AAAAAAAAACM/r4BMMRw_zH8/s1600-h/RabbitDissection.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 228px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ikPowDoKXbE/S2At0COr22I/AAAAAAAAACM/r4BMMRw_zH8/s320/RabbitDissection.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431391522583731042" border="0" /></a>Dissection always used to be a part of school but it seems not longer so I was quite pleased to be givin the oppotunity at college.
