Bird Watching

Walking back to the undisclosed resort from a Taco Hell breakfast, I spied this (click to embiggen; no optical zoom on the cheapie phone). Hosts say it's a crane; I thought maybe heron. But it flew off within seconds of my snapping this, and its wingspan was easily 5' or more. That's a lot of bird!

Up Near Cripple Creek

Parker was there to greet me.

(Country) Jeff was on his way back after being called into work, and then called to say, "no worries" before he got halfway there. He's assembling some fine chicken coops, here.

Luv All Kittehs (Help NatGeo Raise $50K, Too)

National Geographic  has set up a site to upload your kitteh pixels and donate $5 (or more) to help their Big Cats Initiative to slow and reverse the decline in big cat populations. Richard_thunderbay posted a beautiful photo of a snow leopard cub at Baby Blue this morning, so h/t to him for reminding me to spread the news.

If you don't have a kitteh pixel, feel free to use one of mine on this site to make your donation. Thanks!

Kittehs in Ivyville

So, I arrived at Ivy's about 8:45, tonight. She wasn't home yet, so I let myself in and coaxed Larry out, first, and then Curly. We were all very happy to see one another.

Here we have Curly in a food staredown with...

... Ivy's goggie, Tiny, who had an attitude about the guy coming into HIS house when no other humans were there. For ten minutes.

Once he saw that Larry was getting petses, he decided that Shall Not Stand, and I had a new BFF. Oddly, he gets along with L.E., and vice-versa, while he and Curly are at detente over Whose Food Is Whose. That staring contest was about 10", eyeball-to-eyeball, with the bowl right in the middle between them. Very entertaining.

When Ivy & the kids got home, L.E. went into hiding, and never came out again, whereas Curly hung out for petting and staredowns.  :)  The opposite of my predictions. Ivy's son Nate said he had L.E., Curly, Schnitzel (cat) and Tiny in bed with him  last night for quite some time, so there's some trust being built.

MOAR Hawsies!

Youth Incorporated Camp has an RPDA (Reduced Pressure Detector Assembly) backflow that is in a small out-building in the middle of the camp, and I was of course there to test it. I got to pet and skritch a half-dozen friendly horses who were curious about the stranger in their midst, and also as to whether he might have an apple or a carrot on his person.
