Black Hole Sun –
And that’s how rock stars are born.
Yesterday’s duck could learn a thing or two about how to pose like you –
This one has it figured out! He’s a Double-crested Cormorant. He’s young, maybe a year or so. And he’s way ahead of the duck. At least as far as posing for the camera. On a perfect, Spring-like afternoon.
Good work Cormorant. Thanks.
There might be tourists watching –
We can clearly see your feet on the log under the water. Nobody thinks you’re swimming.
Better up your game duck. There’s other waterfowl out there looking for a sweet gig like yours.
Wind blew around here yesterday. Knocked over trees. Power out all over the place. The folks on the ferry runs were in for a wild ride.
So how do these little guys manage to hang on though that?
Happy little flowers. Strong too!
SQUIRREL???!!!! Lemme at ’em!!!
I do loves me some squirrel chasin. Specially since I got no tail to chase….
Sincerely,
Roscoe
This one’s a bit out of shape regarding the lack of free food –

Or he’s the Devil Squirrel.
Either way, I’m staying clear.
And finding some peanuts for him, PRONTO! Before he gets angry.
So, in an effort to make up for the Ostrich, Mother Nature made the Peacock –
All in favor say ‘I”; The eyes have it –
Good work Mother Nature. We’ll give you a pass on the Ostrich thing.
Outta work early, so I took a stroll around Greenlake –
Twas a good stroll, all peaceful and quiet like.
And in a real circle of life kind of way, I offer you this –
Newborn sheep! Twins, about an hour old. Photos don’t serve them well; Shooting through wire mesh in a dimly lit barn will do that. These two are not ready for primetime just yet, but these guys are –
This guy is 1 day old and in more interested in mom’s milk than posing for me and my silly camera. That’s why we have Lucy Legwarmers –
I have NO idea why they call her that, but she’s a good sport about the picture taking –
Although it is all a bit of work for a 1 week old sheep and sometimes you just gotta NAP –
Nicely done mama sheep.
And thanks Mother Nature, great timing.
