How to tell if your cat is plotting to kill you or if your cat adores you or if your cat thinks you're really funny??? It's difficult as you get the same expression.
A happy Eagle? Why yes, because this mature Bald Eagle just caught a fish in Kachemak Bay, but if you could read into the facial expression, I would say heavens no. But that's the issue with eagles, you can't tell anything from their expression!

You tell me that you love the sun, but when the sun is out, you caches
You tell me that you love the rain, but when it rains, you open your umbrella
You tell me that you love the wind, but when it's the wind, you close your window
And why I fear ..
You tell me that you love me!
The Queen of Spring is also the Queen of legends
La pivoine chez les Grecs
Dans leur culture, la pivoine est bien plus qu’une jolie fleur des beaux jours, elle est d’abord considérée comme une plante médicinale. Cette faculté a par ailleurs nourri un mythe grec, où se mêlent colère des dieux et guérison. Son nom d’après les rumeurs, lui viendrait du médecin Péon, disciple d’Asclépios, dieu de la médecine. Ce dernier aurait trouvé un remède à la douleur des femmes durant leur accouchement. Son maître jaloux de son talent, se dit que finalement, il mériterait bien de mourir celui-ci. Fort heureusement pour Péon et pour nous, Zeus proposa une punition moins dramatique et changea le jeune médecin en la fleur qu’il avait découverte : une pivoine. Aussi réputée pour ses couleurs vives, ses teintes et nuances ont également inspiré une légende qui continue d’exister dans notre monde moderne, à travers l’expression : “rougir comme une pivoine”.
L’histoire parle ici de la nymphe Péone, qui comme la plupart des naïades était d’une incroyable beauté. Courtisée par tous les dieux, elle eut la mauvaise idée d’en faire un peu trop et d’enfreindre le code divin de la pudeur. Un faux pas, provoquant l’indignation des tout-puissants, qui décidèrent alors de la changer en une fleur extraordinaire : une pivoine. Quant à son erreur de jugement, pour l’inscrire à jamais dans l’histoire, ils donnèrent à ses pétales la couleur de la honte, le rouge. D’où l’expression…
La pivoine au pays du Soleil Levant
L’ Asie regorge de mythes et légendes, qui nous en apprennent un peu plus sur notre fleur préférée. La première, raconte en partie pourquoi le printemps est la saison favorite des pivoines. En Chine durant la dynastie Tang, un jour de grand froid d’hiver, l’impératrice Wu Zetian après avoir bu un peu trop de vin, exigea des fleurs de son jardin qu’elles fleurissent pendant la nuit, pour la satisfaire au petit matin. Le calendrier des fleurs était apparemment le cadet de ses soucis...
Son nom signifiant “celle qui discipline le ciel”, cette dernière était persuadée qu’aucune variété fleurie n'oserait lui désobéir. Le lendemain, seule la pivoine avait décidé de n’en faire qu’à sa tête et d’attendre le printemps. La reine de la saison apparaît alors pour la première fois, comme une fleur au caractère bien trempé. Folle de rage, l’impératrice exila toutes les pivoines du pays à Luoyang, où finalement, elles s’épanouirent fièrement, donnant lieu à un merveilleux spectacle fleuri. La ville est depuis la capitale de la pivoine, et organise chaque année un festival qui lui est dédié.

The peony among the Greeks
In their culture, the peony is much more than a pretty flower for sunny days, it is first and foremost considered a medicinal plant. This faculty also nourished a Greek myth, where anger of the gods and healing mingle. Its name, according to rumors, comes from the doctor Péon, disciple of Asclepius, god of medicine. The latter would have found a remedy for the pain of women during childbirth. His master, jealous of his talent, said to himself that in the end, he deserved to die this one. Fortunately for Peon and for us, Zeus proposed a less dramatic punishment and changed the young doctor into the flower he had discovered: a peony. Also famous for its bright colors, its shades and shades have also inspired a legend that continues to exist in our modern world, through the expression: “blush like a peony”.
The story here is about the nymph Péone, who like most naiads was incredibly beautiful. Courted by all the gods, she had the bad idea to do a little too much and break the divine code of modesty. A false step, provoking the indignation of the all-powerful, who then decided to change it into an extraordinary flower: a peony. As for its error of judgment, to inscribe it forever in history, they gave its petals the color of shame, red. Hence the term...
Peony in the Land of the Rising Sun
Asia is full of myths and legends, which teach us a little more about our favorite flower. The first, partly tells why spring is the favorite season for peonies. In China during the Tang Dynasty, on a very cold winter day, Empress Wu Zetian after drinking a little too much wine, demanded flowers from her garden to bloom during the night, to satisfy her in the early morning. . The flower calendar was apparently the least of his worries...
Her name meaning "she who disciplines the sky", the latter was convinced that no flowering variety would dare to disobey her. The next day, only the peony had decided to do as it pleased and to wait for spring. The queen of the season then appears for the first time, like a flower with a strong character. Mad with rage, the Empress exiled all the peonies in the country to Luoyang, where they finally blossomed proudly, giving rise to a marvelous flowery spectacle. The city has since been the capital of the peony, and organizes a festival dedicated to it every year.

I was going to post something spooky and wish people a Happy Halloween but I can't bring myself to do so having seen the news from South Korea.
My thoughts are with all those caught up in and affected by the horrific incident in Itaewon, Seoul, during what should have been a night of fun.
Stay safe my Flickr friends.
In the first two days after Yashka's appearance in the house, Vas'ka was indignant all the time: why did you take this annoying puppy when you have me ?!

A Wood Stork seems to be drying its wings and also using them to drive or scare fish into the danger zone. The right foot stirring up the water would indicate fishing as well as it stirs up the bottom driving fish forward toward the beak strike zone.
I watched this behavior for at least 15 minutes so it wasn't just a fleeting event.
Whatever it's doing it makes for an interesting photo.

Seriously? Are you taking photos for me, ok, is my pose cool enough?
This racoon has such cute expression, it seems that she is holding her smile while gazes at me with a probing look, she is plump with a big tail like a pillow. Racoon is not so afraid of people, in fact, racoon likes to search food from garbage in neighborhood, and sometimes they may “dive” into your house through chimney, and make a huge mess.
¿En serio? ¿Me estás tomando fotos, está bien, mi pose es lo suficientemente genial?
Este mapache tiene una expresión tan linda, parece que sostiene su sonrisa mientras me mira con una mirada inquisitiva, es regordeta con una gran cola como una almohada. Racoon no le tiene tanto miedo a la gente, de hecho, a Racoon le gusta buscar comida de la basura en el vecindario y, a veces, pueden "zambullirse" en su casa a través de la chimenea y hacer un gran desastre.
Sérieusement? Est-ce que tu prends des photos pour moi, ok, est-ce que ma pose est assez cool?
Ce raton laveur a une expression si mignonne, on dirait qu'elle tient son sourire tout en me regardant avec un regard pénétrant, elle est dodue avec une grosse queue comme un oreiller. Le raton laveur n'a pas si peur des gens, en fait, le raton laveur aime chercher de la nourriture dans les ordures du quartier, et parfois il peut «plonger» dans votre maison par la cheminée et faire un énorme gâchis.
你在给我拍照吗,Ok,我的姿势够酷吗?
这只浣熊表情如此可爱,似乎她在忍住笑的同时还用探究的眼神在打量着我,她长得非常丰满,还有一条像枕头一样肥硕的大尾巴。 浣熊并不惧怕人,实际上,浣熊喜欢从邻家小院的垃圾中寻找食物,有时它们可能会通过烟囱“潜入”你的房屋,把家里弄得一团糟。
Another bird on our fence - I caught her as she was doing her preening thing, and got an interesting expression...
