... what a f ...... new year ....

Wer hat mir eigentlich so die Maschine abgewürgt zum Jahreswechsel? ...

Ich hoffe ich komme jetzt endlich wieder auf einen grünen Zweig. Das Bild ist von letztens. Danach bin ich nicht mehr aus dem Haus gekommen, blieb mir immerhin das ganze Schneechaos erspart ....

und zum Geburtstag musste ich auch keine Spendierhosen anziehen ... hahaha ...

Nee ehrlich, ohne Galgenhumor geht das gerade nicht mehr,

hab bald alles durch, von unten bis oben, fehlt nur noch das Hirn ;-) ...

Musste noch einmal eine Auszeit nehmen ... nein und ich war nicht übermütig. Ich hätte am Montag letzter Woche wieder arbeiten wollen/sollen und bin nur im Schneckentempo am Sonntag den Stadtbichl (Stadthügel) rauf mit meiner besseren Hälfte, die auch nicht fit war ... nun denn und dann kam wieder eins zum anderen. Morgen letzter Tag mit Antibiotikum und dann wieder Aufbau, alles und ganz, ganz langsam ... schnaufe gerade sowieso wie eine alte Dampflock, da geht auch nur noch langsam ...

We have seven tiny Blue Tit chicks that feed at our Breakfast Club each day... I had to name this chubby one Grumpy. This angle reminds me of that shot of Trump playing tennis, so I think Grumpy fits.

For the SLurl's, you may check my blog (link at my Flickr bio).

I don't think he likes having his picture taken.

Thanks for the visits, faves, and comments.

This Tufted Duck doesn't look best pleased to see me?

Third image in this current toad and frog series.

Ya gotta love the wide stance and the grumpy face that this American Toad is giving me as I photograph it straight on!

I encountered this amphibian as I was raking my parent's springtime lawn this past April.

When you get on the ground at eye to eye level, it becomes a different world and one we rarely experience. That's why I like macro photography so much...

From Mystic Connecticut

Thanks for viewing. : )

A very grumpy looking Chanting Goshawk (Melierax canorus) nicknamed Elvis because he's always singing (or screeching)!

This grumpy looking fella is a curve-billed thrasher. Despite his rather downturned beak, his song is fairly cheery. That long curved bill comes in handy when foraging for insects desert environments.
