Lord Archibald requires 20 minutes of rest for every 10 minutes he walks. And yes, He needed to be up on the bench with me!
This was one of two Scotties I met at Great Meadow. They were cousins who were being walked by their owner. Doesn't this one look like Yosemite Sam?
Late last night I posted this old photo with a begging letter attached. My Flickr Pro account was about to expire, and with no immediate means to pay for it I was seeking a sponsor. Ten minutes later I deleted the photo and letter in a fit of self-inflicted pique, annoyed that I'd even asked, and switched off the box.
This morning I switched on and noticed that the expiry warning at the top of my screen had disappeared, and yet all my photos and sets remained. Which means that in the few minutes the photo was online, someone saw it and responded. Not only that, they responded above and beyond, with two years of sponsorship.
I'm really not sure quite how to react. On the one hand I am profoundly grateful to the point of stifling tears, and on the other hand I'm trying to figure out how to slip this person $60 next time we meet, without them realising (yes, Flickr tells me who you are, even if you prefer not to announce it).
In the meantime, I can only return this photo to its place and allow these two dogs to express my thanks. Yesterday, they pleaded - today, they frolic.
I guess I'd better try to get some good photos, now :-)
P.S. Thanks, again, to Henk for the previous year's sponsorship. Without it, I'd probably never have bothered to find out what Flickr can do. Even though I use only a fraction of the possibilities.
HAPPY NANNER DAY!
In loving memory of Mojo

I love having a snack I can share with baby Arch. Since he gets ZERO table scraps/people food, apples and bananas are two of the few foods we can share.
She celebrated her 10th birthday on 11/20/14, and is also celebrating being just a little over a year past initial tumor surgery/mast cell cancer, grade 3, diagnosis that took place in November 2013.
Back to garden trapping
Well what lovely weather we are currently having, with highs of 26 degrees recently and finally some lights winds the moths have really picked up here and new species are emerging at a huge rate of knots.
Nephopterix angustella made a return after 3 year's, a funny looking Pyralid with it's long elongate look and raised scales.
It was also pleasing to catch the pretty Broad-barred White.
A Coleophora will also be added to the gen det list.

...Hello stubborn Archie!!!
He was being such a big wuss about it being 60 degrees haha. We walked for about a half hour before this big lug wanted to turn around and go home. Note that I don't even need the prong collar because he gets so tired so fast in this weather. I think we need to get one of those cooling vests for him because I cannot deal with this stubbornness all Spring and Summer! I hope he's just adjusting, and he won't be quite as big of a baby once he gets used to warmth.
And I have no idea why those leaves are there. They make it look like it's Autumn. Maybe that's why he wanted to stand on them. Wishful thinking? ;)
I LOVE how Arch looks without a collar on. Of course he rarely goes without one since he's not microchipped yet, and I get so nervous about what would happen if he got away. He was exhausted after his walk today so I had to capture this cuteness while I had my chance.
Out early this year,found on Barons Tower,Muirhouse,Motherwell...16/05/17 photographed & released at home 17/05/17
The inspiration for this item comes from the brindle coloration of my Boxador's beautiful coat (Boxer/Labrador Mix).
This morning, we woke up to surprisingly blizzard-like conditions so I had to take Arch out front to pee (you saw our last video. The back steps are a death trap in this kind of weather). Mike headed out with us to wipe off his car before work. Little Mr. Prissy thought that meant he was going to be driven somewhere.
