Carolina Chickadee with a beak-full of nesting material. It appeared that it had collected too much and had to stop and reorganize its collection so that it could see where it was flying.

I took these pictures out of spite, but I like how they turned out.
His necklace is from lilienchan.
Since I gave Frank a bath last weekend, his coat has gone crazy. I am going to take him to a groomer in a month. I am visiting family and friends up north in mid-March, it is still very cold up there so I'll let him keep the coat until we return.

Lord, its been a while since anyone's walked or driven here. The pavement's all cracked, grass has grown through the crevices ... these aliens must have been decent guys. They left a hell of a mess, of course ... burning fuzz ...
The houses in the Plague Quarter are peeling and lifeless, but the windows are mostly intact. Now at night when you crawl by, you can see the glow inside, as if alcohol were burning in bluish tongues. That's the hellslime radiating from the basement.

THIS ALBUM ('THE ZONE')
These images are very broadly inspired by Tarkovsky's film, ’Stalker’ (1979) and the book he loosely based it on, ’Roadside Picnic’, by the Strugatsky Brothers (1972). Images here are not meant to literally recreate ’Stalker’ scenes, but aim to capture plausibly similar or related scenes, with a similar mood where possible. Much of the film's mood in 'The Zone' itself is dream-like or eery. There are no illustrations in the book (at least, not in my edition). Its mood is mostly less dream-like and more matter-of-fact and action-based.
BACKGROUND
An only vaguely observed, transient, alien event on Earth (The Visit or The Visitation) left behind a hazardous Zone where strange objects, events and conditions occur. They defy scientific understanding, and prove to be a very complex, and sometimes fatal, maze of traps. Those brave and skilful enough (Stalkers), risk these hazards, not always successfully, and enter The Zone illegally to earn a living by collecting particular objects which have acquired substantial financial value on the black market.
In the film, most of the action takes place within The Zone. According to the film's short English language, introductory synopsis, "The setting of the film is a tiny town on the outskirts of The Zone, a wilderness area which has been cordoned off by the government. Stalker works as a guide to bring people in and out The Zone to a room [The Room] which is said to grant the deepest innermost wishes …. Residual effects of an unnamed occurrence have transformed a mundane rural area scattered with ruined buildings into an area where the normal laws of physics no longer apply …."
In the book, the equivalent of The Room is an obscure Golden Sphere the route to which has been discovered by, or passed on to, just a very few Stalkers.

A newly started panda plant. Very familiar to me, as I raised cacti and succulents when I was growing up.
