BAAAA

And in a real circle of life kind of way, I offer you this –

 

Newborn A Newborn B

 

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 –

 

One day old

 

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 –

 

Lucy Legwarmers

 

I have NO idea why they call her that, but she’s a good sport about the picture taking –

 

Watching over her

Hi there

 

Although it is all a bit of work for a 1 week old sheep and sometimes you just gotta NAP

 

Tired Much

 

 

Nicely done mama sheep.

And thanks Mother Nature, great timing.

What are you looking at?

I certain that’s what he’s thinking –

 

Monkey

 

He’s a Patas Monkey and that’s his spot.
I’ll also wager he thinks you are being quite rude staring at him. Furthermore, I think this may be why monkeys throw poop at you.

Good thing my lens has a better range than his throwing arm…

I could be wrong,

But I think they named a lake after this one?

 
Swan

 

 

Get it? Swan Lake? Sometimes I crack myself up.

I don’t even know if that’s a swan. But, it’s swan-like enough for me.

Next stop – VAUDEVILLE!!!!

SPRINGTIME!

Well, after having the wettest winter on record around here, it’s good to see that Spring didn’t just give up. Saw these on the way home from work today –

 

 

Daffodil

 

 

Spring is now officially here. For a while there we were getting worried about it.

 

Good work daffodils, you made my day.

If you’ve got the food

I’ve got the time –

 

Another gull

 

 

Seagulls are great subjects. They’ll sit there, motionless, for forever, as long as they think you might have some morsel of food for them.

Sorry seagull, no food today. Maybe next time. Thanks for letting me take pix.

Dunno what it is

But it’s kinda cool –

 

Farout

 

 

Upon closer inspection, still don’t know what it is –

 

Closeup

 

Whatever it’s name is, it’s kinda cool.

Thanks Mother Nature.

It’s just a temporary fix

Except it’s been that way for 50 years –

Wall

No point in fixing it now I suppose.
