As you can see, she didn't die playing with her Rottweiler friend. Still sunset, still perfectly warm light for shooting some portraits.

The daily border patrol is an important task and it's something Tofu and Filou often do together. While Tofu checks what's going on in the neighbouring gardens, Filou's job is to cover his back.
Took this wee picture when I did my last photo shoot at a local cemetery of Asha peering through a gap in a old headstone...

You may remember I posted a photo of Bandit's little niece, Taiga some time ago. She has grown quite a bit since then in size and personality. She is very sweet, and smart, and so pretty especially with her fanning that has started growing in.
Now that my daughter has moved about an hour west of me, these two don't get to see each other as often as I'd like.
Taiga is always ecstatic to see Bandit, he however is a little more reserved.
Time out on a fellside, both feeling quite content, ... especially Paddy! ... little did he know we were staying the night there sans tent and just a sleeping bag for me .. he spent an open eyed night sheep guarding:)
46115 'Scots Guardsman' crosses the river Tweed heading the 1Z18 06:00 York to Edinburgh Railway Touring Company charter on Saturday 10th December 2022. The presence of scaffolding on both sides of the Grade I-listed Royal Border Bridge bridge influenced my decision to head for the 'dark side' alongside the frosty bank of the river.

Paddy never has really liked the wet stuff and treats it with great suspicion, when he has to, he'll walk slowly with disdain shaking each paw as he takes it out of the water, as it gets deeper (to his collywobbles) theres always a perceptual pause :) .... his best ploy is to avoid it all together!!
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FAVES
ON THE REACTIONS I WILL TRY TO RESPOND BACK
De adelaar is ruim 9 meter hoog en is gemaakt van grof gehouwen stenen. Het is een ontwerp van architect en beeldhouwer Erwin Friedrich Baumann uit Faulensee.
Deze stenen adelaar (Simplon Adler) op de Simplonpass werd tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog ontworpen en gebouwd door Zwitserse soldaten. De adelaar kijkt richting Italië.
Als symbool van de waakzaamheid werd het beeld in het leven geroepen ter herdenking aan de "Wacht op de Simplon" tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog 1940-1945.
Op het monument staat de volgende tekst:
"In de vrijheid van de bergen staat het, een groot memorial van hard graniet:
een memorial van trouwe plichtvervoer, een blijvende herinnering om bereid te zijn en ontwaakt voor onze vrijheid"

The eagle is over 9 meters tall and is made of roughly hewn stone. It was designed by architect and sculptor Erwin Friedrich Baumann from Faulensee.
This stone eagle (Simplon Adler) on the Simplon Pass was designed and built by Swiss soldiers during World War II. The eagle looks towards Italy.
As a symbol of vigilance, the statue was created to commemorate the "Guard on the Simplon" during World War II (1940-1945).
The following text is inscribed on the monument:
"In the freedom of the mountains it stands, a large memorial of hard granite:
a memorial of faithful service, a lasting reminder to be prepared and awake for our freedom."
