Heidi sent us this picture of a cute little fluffy aphid she found in her garden. Great close-up technique! It’s a benign little face–and I think that bug was waving to her.
Yeah, I know, aphids are plant pests–but we can all afford to be a little sweet and sappy now and then, can’t we?
God’s stuff is the best.
[Offstage: Remember! This is for Tuesday. Not today!]
G’day! Byron the Quokka here; and if I did this right, then this is Tuesday and Lee’s at the vet’s with Peep the Cat and I’m in charge again!
That last faux pas was not my fault. Someone distracted me. I won’t say who. Somebody who got bitten for doing it!
Now–check this out! Our friend “Unknowable” snapped this picture of a bobcat right from his window.
Crikey! Here on Rottnest Island, we voted unanimously not to have bobcats. You know how our island got its name? Some Dutch sailors who’d been at sea for way too long thought us quokkas were… rats! Betcha they were the same sailors who thought manatees were beautiful mermaids. Anyhow, we don’t trust bobcats not to make the same mistake those sailors made.
