    Anthropomorphism – a six syllable term for attributing human motivation, characteristics, or behavior to inanimate objects, animals, or natural phenomena. I wonder . . . are dogs guilty of ‘feralpomorphism’ when we ‘bark’ at them for being disobedient? 😊 Here’s a few Outstanding Wildlife Photography winners I’ve added anthropomorphic captions to that hopefully will evoke…
