The LG initials in LG Electronics stand for “Lucky Goldstar” since 1983. When LG rebranded in 1995, it adopted the simple acronym LG alongside the slogan “Life’s Good”. The logo has a stylized smiling face. To me, it's smiling and winking.

At Chong Kneas the floating village near Siem Reap, Cambodia.
This picture reminded me of the movie Life is Beautiful where a father goes through extraordinary efforts to shield his young son from finding out what is really going on in the Nazi concentration camp where they were imprisoned.
Yesterday evening I was sitting in my backyard enjoying a cocktail and listening to Billy Joel. Unexpectedly this little Hummingbird flies into the water spray from my lawn sprinkler and takes a shower. I recorded a bit of the water play on my phone before dashing into the house to grab my camera. Unfortunately, I was a bit too slow to catch the shower episode but did manage to capture this Pic when the hummer landed in a nearby tree.

Allen's Hummingbird:
In early spring, a narrow strip of scrub and chaparral along the Pacific Coast starts buzzing with the sights and sounds of the coppery and green Allen's Hummingbird. Males flash their brilliant reddish orange throat and put on an elaborate show for the females, swinging in pendulous arcs before climbing high into the sky and diving back down with a sharp squeal made by their tails. These early migrants mostly spend the winter in Mexico, but some stay in southern California year-round.
Allen's Hummingbirds breed in a narrow strip of habitat along coastal Oregon and California.
Male and female Allen's Hummingbirds use different habitats during the breeding season. The male sets up a territory overseeing open areas of coastal scrub or chaparral, where he perches conspicuously on exposed branches. The female visits these areas, but after mating she heads into thickets or forests to build a nest and raise the young.
The Allen's Hummingbird is a remarkably early migrant compared with most North American birds. Northbound birds may depart their wintering grounds as early as December, arriving on their breeding grounds as early as January when winter rains produce an abundance of flowers.
Like other birds, Allen's Hummingbirds use their feet to help control their body temperature. When it's cold outside they tuck their feet up against their bellies while flying, but when temperatures soar, they let their feet dangle to cool down.
The oldest recorded Allen's Hummingbird was at least 5 years old when she was captured and rereleased in California during banding operations in 2009. She was banded in the same state in 2004.

I discovered this lonely bird by accident in a simple puddle created by some torrential rain we just had. I could not help but to think that this duck knew something about making limonade when life gives you lemons.

We are currently in Tier 4 in the UK, as the new variant of Covid 19 forces more and more of the country to restrict their movements.
December 28th is my birthday and as we are allowed to go outside my husband and I ventured down to the seafront (Eastbourne, UK) for breakfast and a walk.
As only takeaway is allowed, we stood on the promenade and ate our Danish pastries and drunk our cinammon lattes.....life is not so bad after all. Find pleasure in the small things.
