dog stories

 

my area under the big tree was finally starting to fill in. I had a very nice buncha violets growing under the hydrangeas and fuchsias.

no more.

marina the podenco, assisted by louie louie the standard poodle, disrupted the plants by trying to dig to china. 2+ foot holes. bunches of them.

the mighty hunters track the elusive gophers.

sigh....

A town that grinds up fallen trees to make its own mulch for civic projects. Recycling in action.

Thank goodness that most of the digging was done by our contractor. But there is always cleanup plus the next snow of only am few inches, which was too small for the contractor to bother with.

These Galahs were digging away at the little bit of grass hoping to find something to eat. This was taken at the rest stop along Lake George.

Best if viewed large.

We got at least 6" of snow. I measured it. However it drifted a lot in the front of the house because it's open, so the snow was around 10" deep out there. This is our driveway that is around 75 feet long, so it's a job to clean it up.

I watched this little fella for a while digging the lawn up for worms taken from my window

This warthog was looking for grubs in the parched earth, the birds surrounding her were picking off the small insects she was unearthing at the same time.

I had an idea to shoot through this window that looks into the sunroom. I'm playing around and feeling generally dissatisfied, when my buddy comes in the room to get some attention. He makes me feel a little better, and I get a better shot in the process. Our animal friends are really a blessing.

This is one of the best parts of the morning shoot. When the waves and the ocean quiets. No longer worried about getting crushed it is just about capturing the glass like feature of the water. I often wonder how the ocean so rough and powerful can look so smooth and calm.

I gave up digging and called a neighbor who owned a grader. Even he got stuck a few times. This was a very heavy wet snow.

I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning.

I have two different auto-focus adapters. They give me auto focus with my vintage lenses. I’m using vintage lenses for the most part with my cameras.

I'm still documenting for Challenge #164: People Working

 

One thing about being a widow is people come to help when you need it. First Jill came with her snowblower. Then Nate and Wendi showed up to get my snowblower working. Raquelle and her daughter walked by and grabbed shovels. Then Raquelle went home and grabbed her snowblower. Five people working with three snowblowers and several snow shovels. Yes, I have wonderful neighbors. And, I couldn't document it as well as I wanted because I had to help with the work.

   

This black bear was digging under a rock for a salmon that had died there. It dug for about 5 minutes stopping often to check it's surroundings. There were hundreds of salmon carcasses laying around but the bear wanted the one under the rock.

Well Wolfy soon helped us clear our very own patch on the beach.

another one from the Shoe-box :)

HFF!

Since the weather has matched my apathy for shooting anything around here I figure I'll throw up some old junk. Heres one to prove I do shoot the orange borg if its interesting enough. First Coast 501 drags a cut of cars out from the port of Fernandina Beach. I had wanted this shot for a long time after seeing this location on a beach trip as a kid and finally did after a several hour wait!

Sheep herding contest at Iowa State Fair to show off dog obedience. The red markings on them were for identification and are not blood.

The sheep will obey but as I observed them, I noticed they never seem to stare directly at the dog as cattle seem to do.

They seem to be glancing away even though they know the dog is there, because the sheep were at a point where they were staring at the herder with a stick in hand at a gate entrance and are actually focused on him. The dog also has his eyes fixed toward the command and not the sheep.

Tish is so pretty and looks so ladylike, but I do love it when she really gets stuck in...it's a pleasure to watch her enjoying herself. Mind you it would be, as she's not mine and I'm not the one who has to has to clean those paws :-)

actually this Elephant is busy cleaning out again his self dug waterhole or making it a bit deeper . Here in the dry river bed he does not risk an Crocodile attack. These ones are hiding in the shallow river water waiting for a good prey ....
