This mosaic represents all of the Blythe dears who have managed to get into shots for my Macro Mondays group in which I have participated most weeks for the past five years. The special rules for this group for closeup photography demand that the entire shot must include no more than 3 inches square. Unless specifically requested (as in the April Fools Day theme), no digital manipulation is allowed. The theme is announced on Tuesday and all photos must be taken before the following Monday when they can be posted.
The themes and dates are as follows starting at the top left, reading left to right.

* Rusty didn't actually get into the group that week. A shot of just the screws seemed to be the better macro, so Rusty with the screws was posted on flickr but not to the group.
Yeah, I went back. Who wouldn't? Crazy people? Maybe, but life is short.
She had found some old records, she wanted me to hear them. We debated rye vs cognac for her namesake. We found a lot to disagree on. It didn't matter.
They say third time's the charm. Well, number two did it for me. You never know how The Mother Road is gonna change your life.

Jack and Meg White (upper left) and the Goblin King (center) invited some of the LPS girls over for the holiday weekend.
This is a picture of my old LPS collection, I dont have them anymore because I sold them.. which is kinda unfortunate but it was sort of in the panic of a move
Went to my five below last week and saw these cute littlest pet shop plush balls had to get one.
& My Labubu has had a very tough week so far. He needs some Bacardi. 😂
Priscilla Paws and Maisy Mittens
Priscilla is my newest custom LPS Hybrid.
She is inspired by Peteenas. I even rooted her some hair.
She is a very sophisticated kitty compared to her silly sister.
Dr Solki Blythe, Aquatic Veterinarian, stops in for a dockside chat with her healthy clients, Crush, Shelby and Touché Turtle
Shelby: Dr Solki, are you a herpetologist?
In a good mood, Dr Solki breaks into song...
[DR SOLKI BLYTHE]
♫ I am the very model of a modern herpetologist*
embracing amphisbaenid to zapallarens-ologist
From A to Z (but never will I be an arachnologist) ♬
[Chorus OF TURTLES]
Oh, by Job, it looks like she's an arachnophobe ♪
Yes, she admits that she's an arachnophobe
(Is that a problem of the frontal lobe?)
[DR SOLKI BLYTHE]
♫ Of scientific knowledge, though I'm plucky and adventury,
A lot has come to light since the beginning of the century♬
So I keep up with the Royal (Dick) School of Vete-RIN-ary**
[Chorus OF TURTLES]
♪ She keeps up with the Royal (Dick)
She keeps up with the Royal (Dick)
She keeps up studies with the Royal (Dick) ♫
[DR SOLKI BLYTHE]
In Greek I know the croaking chorus from The Frogs! ♪
And I can hum a fugue to gather all the dolphin dogs
♬ And whistle, click and call the whales to feed the pollywogs...
[Chorus OF TURTLES]
Brekekekex, ko-ax, ko-ax, ♫
Brekekekex, ko-ax, ko-ax!
To be girdled in her lyre's deep shell
♬ Brekekekex, ko-ax, ko-ax!
We've always eaten well!
[DR SOLKI BLYTHE]
♪ I've shopping lists for vegetable, crustacean and mammalian
Feeding all these guys can sometimes cost a million
Insects, fruits and vegetables. Rodents. Larger Mammals.
Larger rodents.
Even larger mammals. Birds.
Larger birds.
Other reptiles.
Sigh.
[Chorus OF TURTLES]
She is the very model of a modern herpetologist ♫
We're glad she is so great as the keeper of the shopping list
And of all the doctors on the dock she's always been our favoritest! ♪

*Herpetology as a unified science apparently stems from the ancient tendency to lump together all creeping (Greek herpetos) animals.
**Yes, it's a real thing: The Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies, founded in 1823 by William Dick.

With tongue planted firmly in cheek and apologies to Gilbert and Sullivan, this ditty was created for the Blythe a Day group Operatic August 2024.
Found this on amazon it was reduced its the Littlest Pet Shop Advent Calendar 2020. Its not as great as the 2024 advent but I wanted the moose and the wolf so i got it.
Built on the site of a Jacobean house, it's notable cantilevered staircase was incorporated into this fine Georgian town house. Named "Kirby House" in 1874 after being purchased by local solicitor Thomas H Kirby it had fallen on hard times by the 20th century. Listed Grade II in 1955. The initial restoration estimate in 1959 was £10.000, but only £6000 could be raised, but what with procrastination (and a post war rebuilding boom ) CCC tried unsuccessfully to have it de-listed to broaden the options but the cost had reached £77.800 by 1971. The real heroes of this piece are the builders WA Blackburn who in 1980 bought it off the financially struggling developers (who'd bought it off CCC) and with Architects Crouch Butler & Savage, and historic consultants RS Melville they salvaged all they could and reproduced everything else using extensive photos taken during 1969. Sold to sun Life in 1982 it became Varley Hibbs & Co in 1987 and subsequently the Citizens Advice Bureau in 2013.
I have been inside twice - in the year 2000 and again in 2006 and was most impressed with what I could see.
