Looking for a bite to eat after the blizzard and coming up with an evergreen branch

It was interesting watching the female dig a bed out of the snow each time they found a place rest. Here it almost looks like she is teaching the cubs how to make a cozy bed!

Feasting on an Abelia flower in the garden today.

Hello Everyone,

 

I wonder how much time it takes for gulls to preen themselves everyday, it's probably substantial. If they're not preening, gulls are bickering with one another or trying to grab each other's meal! I really do get a kick out watching them.

 

Thanks a million for stopping by and for leaving a comment. I do love hearing from you!

 

Have a fantastic day!

Dear all! I'm painfully behind right now due to other commitments. Hopefully I'll be catching up with you all very shortly 💕

Schubert died a bit over 3 years ago in 2017 at almost 15 years old. while weeding and planting today I dug up this polaroid of him from many years ago. dunno when.

 

it is a sweet memory of a sweet special dog.

One of a pair that were digging for graas seeds while I waited for the steam train this morning. You can see by the mud on its beak that the ground is very wet still.

Digging through my summer photos and found some photos I took at Coos Canyon in Maine. Beautiful place. River was flowing pretty good that day.

PETER: (makes strange noises)

aahh...uuhh...pffff...

 

OLEG: (talks to himself)

What's that noise?

I hope Peter isn't in trouble again.

(Sees Peter standing in a deep hole)

Good heavens, Peter... what are you doing?

 

PETER:

Ugh... pfff... a... pfff... digging a hole... that ugh... pfff... as you see, Oleg.

 

OLEG:

But... why? I don't think Mummy Marian will like this.

 

PETER:

Ugh... pfff... well... Mummy Marian should be happy... pffff... about what I'm doing... pfff. There's... pffff.... a dead fly on the pffff... windowsill in the kitchen for a long time now. That's .... dis..dis..ou..... err.... pff.. not nice of her. I'm going to bury it now... pfff... in the... pfff... garden.

 

OLEG:

You're doing well, Peter, but you can't say that Mummy Marian isn't nice. She's busy as a grandmother with baby Rune.

 

PETER: (crying)

Sniff... I mean... sniff... it's not that I don't like Mummy Marian, Oleg... sniff...

I just feel so sorry for the fly... sniff...and...and...sniff...it deserves to be...sniff buried...sniff.

 

OLEG:

Don't cry, Peter...I know you mean well.

Come on, I'll help you bury the fly.

 

PETER:

Oleg... Would you like to make a wooden cross for the grave?

 

OLEG:

Well... um... I'll see what I can do.

 

PETER:

Thank you, Oleg (gives Oleg a snuffly kiss).
