Slightly hairy :)
We went to visit the Scrub Jays while in Florida. We always worry that they won't be there (because their numbers are so
low), or they won't come out because it's illegal feed them, but they always do.
Minutes after we arrived in the open, at least 5 flew out and started landing all over us. One was on my head trying to remove my button by smashing and pulling, and OUCH that hurts. This one was trying to open up Ham's coconut. We both thought we had concussions. No wonder, just look at the size of the beak.
Happy "Funday" Thursday.

Why do they look so ad even when they have a mouthful of eels? Shooting 90 degrees into harsh light makes for some hotspots but I like the eel eyes!
Great trip to the Farnes with Hawkshead photography on Sunday.

It's not as though I needed another skirt in this style, but I did like the look of it and so thought, why not? ;-)
This is no exaggeration: Every time I look at this pic, I laugh.
I don't really know why. But then, there are some other details that maybe help:
I clicked @ this fly while testing a 1250mm lens/fixed F15 - from about twenty five feet away. No crop.
It's such a piece of shit, but I love it.
Also, I had just got the fly in focus, then he flew off...a few seconds later, he returned a little closer (exact same slightly goofy/straight on stance). Maybe that's why it's so funny? But still, there's something else.

There are so many misconceptions about running. Questions like:
Where do you run?
And why?
Of all things: Why run?
Is there something you are running from?
Let me try and get this straight. Would you ask a flower why it blooms in spring?
A newborn falcon why it’s gonna flap its wings?
You wouldn’t ask the earth why it’s so obsessed with the sun.
But you’ll ask me about why I run?

.... because TV Chix thought that I was a fake and wanted proof that this was me! So they got me in part/part mode. Now will they believe me?
I'm getting better with carrying my camera with me everywhere I go. Today was my lucky day! Captured my niece as she was coming home from school. Apparently, she didn't want her photo taken, but it turned out so pretty!!

I looked this up once to see what it used to be. Not a Sonic, not an old A&W, and now I don’t remember what. Also didn’t plan on sharing this but figured why not? So that’s why this shot is titled why not.

So I picked up an amazingly creepy mask from SaNaRae this round- Aii is the creator on it, and it's called 'The Watcher'.

Why is a mild-tempered person often referred to as a pansy? I find that pansies are quite resilient little flowers. In fact, they can withstand a lot. The pansy reminds me of what the Good Book says about love. It states "love bears up under anything." I don't know about you but I want to be a pansy. You might be thinking that I am crazy. I assure you that I just may be! But, I think that you are a fan of my craziness! :)
“Why are you here?” Vorthoth growled at the rider as he dismounted.
“I have a message from Belphegorr for you, Vorthoth.”
Black Knights often were dispatched with important messages from Belphegorr. Their ranks were mostly made of loyal to either Arethry or Belphegorr. They carried an air of menace and malice on them. They never brought good news if delivering news or messages.
“Then what is it, we are busy.”
“Yes, I can see that. You are to travel to Aetherhold upon this horse. I will take command of this… troop,” he said with a tone of disgust, “back to their garrison.”
“Very well, I will leave you with Krowlus, who you will find is very capable of helping you to complete your mission…”
Vorthoth knew this knight would soon meet with an accident. He saw the group gathered and would report who was here. They would never find his body but his armor would fit on an orc well enough. Day 4023 Y12D06 pict 1

I saw this quote on an email from one of my old classmates discussing a rather heavy, yet thought provoking, subject matter "dying with no regret" today. I thought this quote was very inspiring and would like to share it with you:-)

When the struggles of your disability becomes to much for you and you begin to wonder about yourself and ask But WHY ME!!!
Aside from this strange mug he's giving, it's come to our attention that little Jimmy Magoo has a eerie resemblance to the late Heath Ledger.
Getting some hate regarding my Cerebral Palsy recently, hopefully when the video I did with unexpectedtales discussing this comes out people will gain more understanding.
I was so incensed coming into the room and seeing her sitting. I told her she has no right to feel like a regular equal visitor just because she is not wearing her maid uniform. Made her get up and start serving us immediately
You must understand the whole of life, not just one little part of it. That is WHY you must read, that is WHY you must look at the skies, that is WHY you must sing, and dance, and suffer, and understand, for all that is life...we had to learn the hard way...
today my dearest friend told me look to this day...for yesterday is just a dream, tomorrow just a vision, but today well lived makes yesterday a dream of happiness, and every tomorrow vision of hope. Then what is life if risk is just a board game...
I really hate when my hands are in black and white but I hold color...I hate that my head is in color but has black and white thoughts?...I just hate it...
The adjourning of the Great Congress of Lenfald brought with it almost as many questions as it did answers. For Abner, it also brought new orders.
Gottfried, Abner's commander, strode over as the delegates began to rise and file out of the chamber.
"Abner," he said, looking directly into his subordinate's face. "Do you know why I chose you to accompany me to such an important occurrence?"
Abner stood and addressed his captain. "I know not, sir."
"It is because I feel you are trustworthy and that you possess great patience," continued Captain Gottfried. "Am I incorrect in my judgments?"
"Nay, sir, I am worthy of your trust and I am a patient man," replied Abner, somewhat confused.
Captain Gottfried's mouth turned up in a rare mischievous smile. "Good, because we have been given the task of escorting his lordship the Grand Duke Meyrick back to Ainesford!"
Abner shook his head in disbelief. "That is just not fair, sir," he replied.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The small company departed Stonewald the following morning on horseback; Grand Duke Meyrick and his aide, Captain Gottfried, Abner, and a small detachment of rangers from the capital.
The journey was uneventful, and the riders came in view of the Ainesford gates in a few days' time. The city itself, however, was another matter.
Smoke billowed from an old warehouse just inside the perimeter wall and the shouts of men working frantically to douse the flames could be heard even outside the city. Rioters charged through the streets, hurling torches and brandishing various farm implements menacingly. Soldiers stood guard in front of key buildings, clashing occasionally with particularly bold citizens.
Grand Duke Meyrick motioned for the rangers to follow and trotted his horse ahead, leading the party towards the city center. A cry came up from a woman in the street, "Aye, look 'ere! Tis the duke, returnin' to take 'way all our 'ard-earn'd money!"
People began to shout and run after the horsemen, who now galloped towards a large building only a few hundred yards ahead. Abner recognized it as the city hall of Ainesford - an old, worn, but still beautiful building originally constructed as a symbol of the city's economic prosperity. It was surrounded by soldiers, a handful of whom rushed forward to greet their lord and take away the horses.
The group dismounted hastily and the captain of the guard ushered them inside, shutting the heavy oaken doors firmly behind them.
"This is madness," said Gottfried, pointing back towards the chaos. "Utter madness."
The din of the mob could still be heard clearly outside.
"It will subside," replied Sorley Meyrick cooly, taking a seat at the long table in the center of the hall.
"That's your answer?!" cried Gottfried, seating himself across from the duke and his aide, "Ignore the problem and wait for it to solve itself?"
The grand duke glared at the ranger captain. "Don't question me, Captain. Remember that you are a guest in my city and that I was a ranger once as well. I know how hot-headed you types are."
Gottfried rose angrily, knocking over his chair and slamming his sword on the table. "YOU have no power but that which the people grant to you!" he yelled. "And by the sound of it," he said, cupping his hand to his ear dramatically (the rioters could be heard just outside the hall), "they don't seem very supportive right now."
Now the duke rose, and his aide with him. "How DARE you!" screamed Meyrick, "How dare you question a Grand Duke- a lord- a, a, a NOBLEMAN! I will not have this kind of disrespect. I will have your head! You will pay for this- hang for this! You lily-livered, toad-licking-"
"ENOUGH!"
The room fell utterly silent and everyone turned in shock to the man who had just shouted. Abner stepped forward from the shadows into the light of the chandelier.
"What did you just say to me, boy?" growled the duke.
"I said 'enough'," replied Abner calmly. "Now I believe my commander was about to propose a resolution to this issue that you seem incapable of handling on your own." He inclined his head to Gottfried. "Pardon the interruption, sir. Please continue."
Captain Gottfried shook his head, placed his hands on his hips, and let out a hearty laugh. He looked back up at the duke and said, "Now when is the last time you met someone who could make me chuckle?"
Grand Duke Meyrick took a moment to recover, then a thin smile spread across his face as well. "Your man doesn't disappoint in the least, Gottfried. Bring him to the table, let's see what kind of ideas this young man has for solving our rioting problem."
Abner, utterly confused, walked slowly up to the table and took his chair as the other men sat.
"Our apologies for the deception, friend, but we had to know you were willing to risk your own self in these difficult times before we trusted your counsel," said the duke. "Gottfried here has spoken most highly of you- he says you are very wise."
Abner, still completely lost, stammered, "You gentlemen... know each other?"
Grand Duke Meyrick and Captain Gottfried looked at each other for a moment, then broke out into another fit of laughter.
"I'm telling you!" said Gottfried between laughs, "This fellow is hilarious!"
Seeing the bewildered expression still plastered across Abner's face, Grand Duke Meyrick said, "Abner, this is my brother-Gottfried Meyrick."

Why not Follow Jesus and what He calls us to?
Matthew 16:24-26
Don't overly concern yourself with the demon of fear that has been unleashed. Jesus Said “Fear not “ if We Trust in Jesus…follow his teachings and pray. Satan should tremble. Psalm 23:4, Luke 12:25, Romans 8:38-39, Matthew 10:28.
A small tip to help when I pray. Type in the name (Jesus) in the search window in your browser. Then push the image tab to see many images of Jesus. Pick one or a few. Then make large to fill the computer or phone screen. Imagine then your self with Jesus in the conversation of your prayer. I have done this for some time. I find it helpful to keep my focus especially win doing a rosary or chaplet. I hope this can help you also. We need not fear Jesus with his unfathomable divine mercy. That He so much would love to give us.
See in Luke 21 this is on the way some day. Is it now I don’t know? But God could call us at anytime. We should be ready and packed for the journey. We are not promised tomorrow. Consider going to reconciliation Acts 3:19, Psalm 46:1-3. It’s a wise decision to be in the state of Grace then satan can not temped us so easily. Make an act of contrition until you can get to a confession. Consecrate yourself to the Immaculate Heart of Jesus and Mary. Pray the Rosary and chaplets daily. Also if possible do some fasting, make sacrifices, attempt to change your life. Get to mass and receive the Holy Eucharistic. In case God dose call sooner then we think. I have read many of the saints went to confession monthly or even weekly.
Luke 21: 36 Be vigilant at all times and pray that you have the strength to escape the tribulations that are imminent and to stand before the Son of Man.
Well I think if we really do repent and do a true reconciliation / confession. We will do well with standing before Jesus. I would think. I know I have been in many tribulations and some I did poorly and some I did well. But I try to get to reconciliation often. I think now with all that is happening lately. I need to up the times I go to keep my spiritual strength up. I can’t do it at all with out Jesus help. I hope I gave some people some things to think about. +JMJ+
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name: Thy kingdom come: Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread: and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation: but deliver us from evil. Amen.
O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, and lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of Your Mercy. Amen.
Not sure why but this older shot appeals to me but I've get putting off posting it. It is a bit of a golden oldie at this point :-) I'd probably use this as some sort of texture if I knew enough to do that sort of thing.
Hope everyone is having a great Saturday! I'm being dad to an extended family for the weekend and fighting off the remnants of this darned cold. Thanks as always for your fun comments, invites and faves!
