Between deluges

 

 

Rain stopped for 30 minutes. Even saw a couple shadows and bits of blue sky. This is rare.

Took some photos. This is even more rare. Not goomingo rare, but close. Said photos –

 

 

 

Best I could do. Shy bastids today. And me without any bribery crackers.

Shadows and blue sky are back to not being around, rain is falling once more.

C’est la vie.

Another from the zoo

How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?

 

 

Don’t ask this guy, he may not be too bright. See, not 2 minutes before this photo, the giant bird fell out of a tree! Not kidding, true story.

That look is one of “You didn’t see that did you?”

Yes Mr Owl, I did. And yes, you are a klutz.

One of these things is not like the others…

Can you spot what’s different?

 

 

 

 

Yup, it’s the ultra rare white goomingo! You don’t see one of those every day…

The look on the faces of the not so rare pink flamingos is priceless.

Fisherman’s Terminal

Spent a bit in the rain and cold down at Fisherman’s Terminal. Always good by the water.

One of these things is not like the other. Can you guess which one?

Ahh, the stories the Polar Lady could tell…

And the flowers for the crew and families of the F/V Destination –

The fat rodent was right

Back in early February he said 6 more weeks of winter, and he was right.

Maybe, just maybe, this is the first sign of the end of those six weeks –

Good eats in that lawn.

Under the snow is the only problem.

Get after them worms Robin.

“You shoulda seen this fish Ralph”

“I’m telling you it was THIS BIG!”

 

fish-tale

 

“Sure it was Harold, sure it was.”

 

At least that’s the conversation I imagined they were having. They may well have been talking about the weather, or the idiot on the dock with the camera.

I’m sticking with the fish tale…

Well, ya don’t see that every day

 

Being the ballet fan that I am, I couldn’t miss it when Swan Lake came to town –

I wonder who set two perfectly good Trumpeter Swans loose on Lake Washington?

I wonder if they taste like chicken? They’re big enough to feed my house when I was little…

Just sayin…
