I saw the man throw the ball for the dog in the distance so took this quick shot, all at the wrong settings. I intended to take a few more but that was the last throw before home time

So unless that ball's got a quantum flow
The game is done until you let the tennis ball go
So be a good dog and set the ball free
So we can play fetch in reality!...

I love how my dad always fetches the ball for me and then throws it so I can get it and bring it back so he can do that again.
Just thought that on this day I would share an amazing moment from my recent polar bear adventure. Who ever thought that a polar bear would play a game a "fetch & retrieve" with us?
Now before anyone gets the wrong idea ... of course, I'm joking. It's April Fool's Day!
We did however get to observe this magnificent polar bear frolicking around in the icy waters, having the best time in the world playing with this stick. Amazing that it would even find a stick out in the waters off Kaktovik seeing how the closest trees are literally hundreds of miles away.
This adult polar bear played relatively close to our boat for quite some time ... to the delight of all of the camera shutters clicking away. LOL. They just really seemed to have such a grand time playing in those icy waters while passing their time waiting for the ice to freeze.
When I look at this amazing bear ... especially into its eyes ... I can't help but want to help tell their story of their struggle for survival. Please help in their protection and that of their environment as well.
Thanks so much for stopping by to view and especially for sharing your thoughts and comments. The blog featuring this and many other polar bear images is available for viewing at www.tnwaphotography.wordpress.com

What could be better than a nice game of fetch on a sunny Sunday afternoon? Flynn says he doesn't know!!
Flynn, despite all his behavioural issues we've had to deal with (& continue to work on!), has always been a pretty good dog to go potter about in the countryside with. He rarely strays too far ahead & his recall is great. He always keeps an eye - or an ear! - on what I'm doing... if I stop, Flynn will usually either stop too, or turn around automatically & come back to check in with me. He isn't shy with strangers, but also isn't inclined to run & jump at people & he tends to avoid other dogs. If he hears or sees something unusual, his instinct is to let me know & then usually, he'll return & let me handle it. He might chase after a squirrel, or pheasant but never tries to catch them! Flynn does love to play fetch but unlike some border collies I've met, he isn't *too* obsessive about toys - so, if I put the ball away, Flynn will happily go do "dog stuff" for a while - trotting about & sniffing.
Haha, the only thing Flynn's not so great at, (even at nearly 9yrs old), is accepting that the slow hoomans he walks with sometimes like to stop for a time! Walks are for walking after all - not lazing around! I took this near the only bench in the entire wood... The bench where I was *supposed* to be having a nice sit down & a break. Flynn did kindly...allow... me to rest my legs for a minute or two, while I gulped down a quick drink. However, it wasn't a very restful experience, as I was keenly away of Flynn's intense gaze fixed on me & the very second he saw I'd had the last sip from my cup, Flynn decided that I'd had enough of a rest now. He began hopping about & woo-wooing: "Come on, come on! We've got stuff to be doing!!". We were out with his elderly brother Barney & another hooman & like me, they both wanted to continue having a longer break, enjoying the sunshine. However somehow, at Flynn's insistence, I found myself back on my feet, playing a game of fetch, until our companions were ready to go. Judging from his up-curled tail, Flynn felt pretty pleased with himself!

My parents brought me out to play ball this afternoon, it was such fun! My mom says I'm doing very well for a 14 year old.
