An old photo from my archives, and not great a bit grainy and dark. I wanted to remember this caring father fox, Big Red.
My own very wonderful father died one year ago. I miss you everyday dad and love you.
This photo is also to honor all those beautiful wolves who were chased down and murdered recently in our state. Animals and wildlife care about their young just like we do. Predators are gravely misunderstood. As author of the book NVER CRY WOLF Farley Mowat stated so well:
“We have doomed the wolf not for what it is, but for what we deliberately and mistakenly perceive it to be –the mythologized epitome of a savage ruthless killer – which is, in reality, no more than a reflected image of ourself.”
Thank-you to all who take the time to comment on my photos it is greatly appreciated.
Stay well my Flickr friends <3

“I feel I'm often misunderstood by critics. People project a lot or exaggerate the subjective fragility simply because it's frightening to them.”

BROKEN – RAY DAVIES
NOT BROKEN
A little flower was very curious
she felt that she was being fenced in
by a grey alternate world
where confusion reigned
and tore at her sweet heart
and time and time again
she let forgiveness lead her
through the fence in curiosity
and she was foolish
to let that world
cause her so much pain
and aim at her so much animosity
in her own little world the sun still shone
and all the other flowers
gathered around her;
made daisy chains
placed them in her plaited hair
and sang sweet soothing words
a lullaby of love and care
sunlight filtered through the grass
and lit up dew like precious jewels
her wounds ran deep
and left her tattered dress
still white but torn
but no-one saw this mess
all they saw when they looked at her
was the same little flower
they knew and loved
complex and often misunderstood
but as much a part of nature
as soft and gentle Summer showers
fragile as this flower is
inside her heart is warm and strong
and goodness shines from inside out
and radiates her whole life long
those cruel words written;
those harsh jibes spoken;
never will they harm her
she will and is protected always
by angels; and she's not broken.
Just a silly story about a little flower … ; 0)

This opossum is, I believe (late in the breeding season for Texas), carrying babies in her pouch; a newborn baby is the size of a jellybean. She comes every night usually as the stray cats are finishing eating. Both cats and opossums get along together (in this instance), in fact, they will sometimes eat together at one of the bigger feeding bowls. I love having them hang in my garden as they eat snakes, snails, cockroaches, etc. They happily also eat cat food, boiled eggs (including shells), fruit and vegetables. Sadly, their lifespan is short, generally in this area, just 2-4 years. Many fall prey to predators or are killed on the roads. They are often so misunderstood.

I'm not going down on my knees,
Begging you to adore me
Can't you see it's misery
And torture for me
When I'm misunderstood
Try as hard as you can, I've tried as hard as I could
To make you see
How important it is for me
Here is a plea
From my heart to you
Nobody knows me
As well as you do
You know how hard it is for me
To shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue
In situations like these
Understand me
Some people have to be
Permanently together
Lovers devoted to
Each other forever
Now I've got things to do
And I've said before that I know you have too
When I'm not there
In spirit I'll be there
Here is a plea
From my heart to you
Nobody knows me
As well as you do
You know how hard it is for me
To shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue
In situations like these
Understand me

Ravens are some of the misunderstood species. Some say they bring misfortune, others accuse them of stealing or say they are bad and devious. The truth is that they are very social and highly intelligent. And moreover I think they are very beautiful.

He really is a friendly guy, but Rottweiler owners know: because of these dogs' muscular appearance, the impression foreign passengers mostly get, is a different one.

"baby, sometimes i'm so carefree
with a joy that's hard to hide

Waiting on the World to Change~~
One, two, one, two, three
Me and all my friends
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing and
There's no way we ever could
Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it
So we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
It's hard to beat the system
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want
That's why we're waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
It's not that we don't care
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
And we're still waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
One day our generation
Is gonna rule the population
So we keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
No we keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change
Waiting on the world to change.
Background:
"Forget ME not" was created to raise awareness about M.E (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis) - an extremely debilitating, life changing, complex chronic disease that has received shamefully low attention and fundings for research for decades. Patients are being disbelieved, misunderstood and dismissed. There is no treatment and no cure.
Over 20 million people across the globe are affected and in the aftermaths of COVID this number is quickly rising (many Long Covid patients end up being diagnosed with M.E).
During our events in May we will create awareness, break the stigma and fundraise for the "Open Medicine Foundation" who conduct research into M.E, Long Covid, Fibromyalgia and related chronic conditions. They are a registered, US based non-profit organization that has been around for over 10 years.
You can also support by wearing this blue ribbon exclusively made by Enewa, when you click the information box at the Forget ME Not sim.

These poor little ones that just want a mate are so misunderstood right now with billions of them escaping the darkness of the ground after 17 years.

The final images in my series was a pleasure to be in their presence. These beautiful animals deserve all the respect in the world and too often are severely misunderstood.
The call from an adult is a loud "Jay Jay!" this one has a wee little crackled call "Jaaay, Jaaay." We have several juveniles visiting - not sure where they have nested but I finally managed a photograph of this young one. More white around the eyes and the pink at the corner of her beak.
I adore these birds, like Magpies they can be misunderstood or unloved. But Jays mate for life and are incredibly smart. And who doesn't love those blue feathers!
Happy Friday!
Black Bears are so fascinating to watch with their interesting individual personalities. A beautiful and too often misunderstood animal that is deserving of our profound respect. For one they help make our forests so beautiful with the way they fertilize the forests with the fish they eat.

I was blown away.
What could I say?
It all seemed to make sense.
You've taken away everything,
And I can't deal with that.
I try to see the good in life,
But good things in life are hard to find.
We'll blow it away, blow it away.
Can we make this something good?
Well, I'll try to do it right this time around.
Let's start over.
I'll try to do it right this time around.
It's not over.
'Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground.
This love is killing me,
But you're the only one.
It's not over.
Taken all I could take,
And I cannot wait.
We're wasting too much time
Being strong, holding on.
Can't let it bring us down.
My life with you means everything,
So I won't give up that easily.
I'll blow it away, blow it away.
Can we make this something good?
'Cause it's all misunderstood.
Well, I'll try to do it right this time around.
You ruined everything good
Always said you were misunderstood
Made all my moments your own
Just fcking leave me alone
with the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.
-Eleanor Roosevelt
thoughts.........words in misterious ways,the same words said from different people can have different meanings and feelings,
can reach to you or simply pass ,or even misunderstood.
I hope there will be no misinterpretation of my words.
Yes I HOPE.....that's all I can do :)
Kalimera,
have a wonderful weekend my dear friends!

Made a wrong turn, once or twice
Dug my way out, blood and fire
Bad decisions, that's alright
Welcome to my silly life
Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood
Miss "No way, it's all good", it didn't slow me down
Mistaken, always second guessing, underestimated
Look, I'm still around
Pretty, pretty please, don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than fuckin' perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever, ever feel like you're nothing
You're fuckin' perfect to me!
Do you ever feel like a misfit?
Everything inside you is dark and twisted
Oh, but it's okay to be different
'Cause, baby, so am I (So am I, so am I, so am I-I-I-I-I)
Can you hear the whispers all across the room?
You feel their eyes all over you like cheap perfume
You're beautiful, but misunderstood
So why you tryna be just like the neighborhood?
I can see ya, I know what you're feelin'
So let me tell you 'bout my little secret
I'm a little crazy underneath this
Underneath this

I may have misunderstood this theme - here I used my telefoto to zoom in on some cows, tiny on the vast horizon. Hoping to catch up on your streams during airport time on my last work trip of the year.

You never know when you're gonna meet someone
And your whole wide world in a moment comes undone
You're just walking around, then suddenly
Everything that you thought that you knew about love is gone
You find out it's all been wrong
And all my scars don't seem to matter anymore
'Cause they led me here to you
I know that it's gonna take some time
But I've got to admit that the thought has crossed my mind
This might end up like it should
And I'm gonna say what I need to say
And hope to God that it don't scare you away
Don't wanna be misunderstood
But I'm starting to believe that
This could be the start of something good
Here We Go Again... What Could Possibly Go Wrong?
Alpaca Walking ...... The One Who Spat Back
🎵 Music www.youtube.com/watch?v=BN1WwnEDWAM&list=RDBN1WwnEDWA...
Pippa had always thought alpacas looked gentle.
Fluffy.
Calm.
Almost ridiculously friendly.
Nobody had mentioned the spitting.
This seemed like quite an important omission.
When Pippa arrived at the farm that morning, the lady introduced her to a beautiful cream alpaca called Alfie.
“He's got a lovely temperament,” she said.
Pippa looked at Alfie.
Alfie looked at Pippa.
Pippa smiled.
Alfie chewed.
It seemed an excellent start.
Five minutes later, Pippa would reconsider this assessment.
The group set off along a beautiful country lane, winding between old stone walls and rolling green hills.
“This is lovely,” Pippa said.
Alfie stopped.
Pippa stopped.
“Come on, Alfie.”
Alfie stared at her.
Pippa gave the lead a tiny encouraging tug.
Alfie did not move.
“Alfie?”
Nothing.
A butterfly passed them.
Several clouds passed them.
Pippa was fairly certain Tuesday passed them.
Eventually, Alfie decided they could continue.
Apparently, Pippa had misunderstood the arrangement.
She wasn't walking Alfie.
Alfie was walking Pippa.
Things were going reasonably well until a scream came from behind.
“WAIT! SLOW DOWN! WAIT!”
Pippa turned.
Another woman was hurtling along the lane behind an extremely enthusiastic alpaca, both hands gripping the lead as she desperately tried to keep up.
“DO SOMETHING!” she shouted as she flew past.
Pippa wasn't entirely sure what she was expected to do.
So she waved.
“Morning!”
The woman disappeared around the bend.
Pippa looked at Alfie.
Alfie looked at Pippa.
For the first time that morning, Pippa felt rather fortunate.
“At least you're sensible,” she told him.
Alfie chewed thoughtfully.
Then his ears moved.
His head turned.
And before Pippa had time to wonder why...
PFFFFFT!
Pippa froze.
There was a long silence.
Very slowly, she looked down at the front of her jacket.
Then she looked at Alfie.
Alfie continued chewing.
“Did you just...?”
Alfie blinked.
“You DID!”
Pippa stared at him in horror.
“THE LADY SAID YOU HAD A LOVELY TEMPERAMENT!”
Alfie appeared completely unconcerned by the lady's reputation.
On the stone wall nearby, a robin watched quietly.
Pippa was beginning to suspect that robin had been following her adventures purely for entertainment.
Eventually the rest of the group caught up.
“How are you getting on with Alfie?” the lady asked brightly.
Pippa looked at her jacket.
She looked at Alfie.
She looked back at the lady.
“Wonderful.”
The lady smiled.
“I knew you two would get along.”
Pippa said nothing.
Alfie chewed.
The robin watched.
And somewhere in the distance came a faint cry...
“SLOW DOOOOOWN!”
Pippa sighed.
Perhaps Alfie wasn't so bad after all.
Alfie turned his head towards her.
Pippa immediately stepped backwards.
“Don't even think about it.”
Alfie chewed.
And Pippa decided that next time somebody described an activity as a peaceful countryside experience...
she was going to ask considerably more questions.
Especially if it had teeth.
And saliva.
Lots and lots of saliva.

༺ Photography and Story by Pippa ༻
I don’t normally repost images, or cropped versions of already posted images. But learning about photography, like learning about most things, is hardly linear. The best part of learning is often finding out that something you had thought you learned and knew, that you had under your belt, maybe wasn’t as secure as it seemed. There was a notorious Danish philosopher who suggested that the best way to teach someone was to say something under your breath as you walked by them - so that they had to think about it and mull it over, rather than lecturing in a classroom.
Though the idea of saying something under your breath is a kind of metaphor or parable, someone did that with respect to the image I posted yesterday, and sure enough I learned something I thought I knew was instead something I thought, and maybe misunderstood. Thanks for taking the time to make the suggestion Chantal (and, in another context, James) - it is really appreciated.
We all have good and bad days, for some the bad days are worse than for others. I was talking to friend today and they told me they are having a really bad day, I know how that goes and sometimes it is hard to pick yourself up. If this is you today, message that friend that you want to talk to because most likely they will listen and then just pick your ass up off the ground and keep going. It will get better. This pic is a mess, but I made the best I could of it. Do the same with all of your situations and you will make it through it. One step at a time one breath at a time if you have to. XOXO

Miss knowing it's all good, it didn't slow me down

Look, I'm still around
Pretty, pretty please, don't you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than fuckin' perfect
Pretty, pretty please, if you ever, ever feel like you're nothing
You're fuckin' perfect to me
You're so mean (you're so mean)
When you talk (when you talk)
About yourself, you were wrong
Change the voices (change the voices)
In your head (in your head)
Make them like you instead
So complicated, look happy, you'll make it
Filled with so much hatred, such a tired game
It's enough, I've done all I can think of
Chased down all my demons, I've seen you do the same, oh
Pretty, pretty please, don't you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than fuckin' perfect
Pretty, pretty please, if you ever, ever feel like you're nothing
You're fuckin' perfect to me
The whole world's scared, so I swallow the fear
The only thing I should be drinking is an ice cold beer
So cool in line, and we try, try, try
But we try too hard and it's a waste of my time
Done looking for the critics 'cause they're everywhere
They don't like my jeans, they don't get my hair
Exchange ourselves and we do it all the time
Why do we do that, why do I do that?
Why do I do that?
Black Bears are so fascinating to watch with their interesting individual personalities. A beautiful and too often misunderstood animal that is deserving of our profound respect. For one they help make our forests so beautiful with the way they fertilize the forests with the fish they eat. This young bear was super adorable just look at its face!
This moment captures the elusive beauty of a coyote in the wild, gazing with a calm yet intense focus. Coyotes are known for their adaptability and keen survival instincts, and getting a close-up like this showcases their intelligence and resilience in their natural habitat. I hope this image invites appreciation for these often misunderstood creatures.
April 27th is International Hyena Day which advocates for changing the public's perspective on hyenas, and seeing their importance on Earth.
Hyenas don't have the greatest reputation due to centuries of bad publicity through literature and folklore. Spread through Africa and Asia, hyenas are intelligent mammals living in clans of 10 to 120 animals. They are skilled hunters, and not only scavengers which still makes them essential to prevent the spread of disease. They have highly acidic stomachs to break down their food, even though it isn't the freshest quality...
Their "demonic laugh" is often misunderstood, as it occurs when a lower-ranking animal is stressed. Hyenas are vulnerable to extinction because of habitat loss and persecution by farmers and poachers.
