Wow! I'm impressed, at least one of your cats is wearing a collar, Grace won't wear one, She has pulled them off in the past.


They both wear them :) Though Annie (the Calico Cat, is no longer with me. I gave her to a friends mother that had a cat that passed away and was looking for a very loving, cuddly cat and that is Annie. She thinks she is a dog. I told her when she got her though that she couldn't just let her eat because she would never stop. And another reason I gave Annie to her was that she would get hungry at 4AM and stomp all over my face until I got up and fed her! Arggg. If purring didn't work then stomping. If stomping didn't work then rubbing up against your face, if that didn't work then nipping your ear; see how it escalated!

Anyway, she's doing great and is well cared for.

Midget (the Black Cat) has Cushings Disease, so he lives in the bathroom. Has a little condo and heater and window to look out. He has to have constant running water to drink so it is the only place I can keep him where he has access to trickling water.

I'm sorry to hear that, Grace loves to watch running water, though She's pretty and as healthy as she can be, she lives almost anywhere in My mobile home, she's in better shape than I am, right now Grace is sleeping, soon I'll be putting out Her canned dinner. She likes eggs and sausage.

OK, one more puppies picture! I am puppy sitting a friends Pom and her puppies while she is away. Gigi is such a good mom, what a pleasure to puppy site them.

This is PC. He's gone now. In the first photo he's watching a bird video that
was made expressly to entertain cats.

In the second photo he's just soaking up some sun and chillin'.

Gracie loves this huge box. Now what do I do? I guess I break her heart because it's too
big to keep. :-(

Yes I hope it isn't as well, there were some excellent pictures. I had originally withdrawn from posting pictures here, but a I was reminded by a phrase from 4 gentleman from Liverpool recently.

"Life is very short and there's not time for fusing and fighting my friends".

So I will put in an occasional appearance here, as I do seem to collect a few pictures.

I will start with the oldest one from the end of Jan, I have been trying to for a while to get a good picture of the pheasants that visit dads garden on a daily basis, but they are shy and scare easily.

However by keeping very still I was able to get this shot through the glass kitchen door.



I think it could just see me moving.

Also another wildlife one, I think I could almost use this one in the caption thread.



A green woodpecker searching for ants on the lawn.

Here is one where I actually learnt something. While trying to get pictutures of a flock of Brent Geese, I notice an RNLI lifeboat in the background.





It was too far away to get a good shot, however it reminded me to look up the odd history of the tower in the background.

"Sway Tower, built by Andrew Thomas Turton Peterson on his private estate from 1879–1885, its design (and the use of concrete) was influenced by the follies Peterson had seen during his time in India. It is constructed entirely out of concrete made with Portland cement, with only the windows having iron supports. It remains the tallest non-reinforced concrete structure in the world."


You learn something every day :-)

Here is another thing you don't see everyday.



The Belgian Naval Minehunter Lobelia. As far as I am aware it is the first BNS ship I have ever seen.

The Solent (the channel of water between the Isle of Wight and the mainland) has been quite busy lately, with the UK Border Force Vessel Seeker slipping through recently.



And finally of course today is Shrove Tuesday

And the square in Yarmouth looked like this for the pancake races.



Now it wasn't the races that caught my eye , rather the alpacas standing by the crowd.



They came from here West Wight Alpacas

Not really sure why they were there but I can definately say it is the first time I have seen alpacs or llamas in the square at Yarmouth.



They looked quite relaxed, even the starting horn for the races didn't seem to worry them.

Pileated woodpecker on my suet feeder from last fall. Couple times a year they stop by if I'm lucky.

It's a clivia. It is far, far away from it's indigenous habitat, which is southern Africa. I have dozens of them in my garden in Randburg, Johannesburg.

How does one persuade pancakes to race?

A hungry Alpaca standing just behind the start line should get them going...

I would have sad some sort of amaryllis. Is a clivia a type of amaryllis?
