Sitting inside on a sunny day

I wish this was me playing but it ain't. Anyway, it says what I'm feeling today...

Bonasa umbellus

Sitting on the couch, which is about all I do these days, some motion outside my window caught my eye. Upon inspection from my bedroom window I discovered I had four Ruffed Grouse eating buds on one of my apple trees. I was never able to get a shot of all four as they were scattered widely in the tree.















Bonasa umbellus, by the way, comes from the drumming sound this grouse makes, which was thought to sound like the bellowing of a bull bonasus or European bison.

Greyhounds

My friend and colleague LJL took me to a Greyhound Meet ’n’ Greet a while back.

I had the pleasure of going with her and her mother while they picked a dog several months ago. Star was the first one they brought out. A fairly young adoptee, by greyhound racing dog retiree standards. She wasn't a good race dog. To her advantage, because now she gets to live in a home and sleep on a couch instead of living crammed into a crate most of the time. Thank dog.

Here she is along with a few other shots.

Tell me, tell me, tell me true
