Update: You can see all the photos here

Well, I might have gone a bit overboard, but I do like Rhinos.

RhinosUnited

Say hello to my crash of rhinos.

And here is a nice family of them:

I don’t get this way very often, but AWESOME!

Hello Ayende,

in Dortmund/Germany you can find the "flying rhino" in form of sculpture all around the city as it is the concert hall's heraldic animal. It is customized to the place and/or the organizations exhibiting them. Check this gallery for a small selection: http://www.rysch.com/nashorn/index.html

Best regards Miguel

Ayende looks like he's single (hint: he's smiling)..... maybe he's in his honeymoon period. (or that i'm just jaded..)

Love the crash of rhino's :) So many!! And u have ink! And the collective noun connection to programming ...

Time to start a project/company called HibernatingWildCats .. cause their collective noun is called a destruction of cats (wild cats). RAWR! (sounds like my fail code -> all destructive)

This is awesome!

Now, lets take it to the next level and actually purchase a real Rhino as a pet. That would be epic!
