Snow Go Saturday

The 12.5 inches of snow DFW melts as I type. Not as pretty as it once was. Kinda see the grass in spots now. Pigeons, wussies as they are, now got more ground to sit on instead of to hop on the snow--like they did yesterday. I see water drops drip from our roof--what a difference a day makes in Texas weather! No sign of the sun--yet.

Anyhoo, it is STILL Saturday. We glued ourselves to Tommy while she snored and cut off her circulation. Tommy growls alot when that happens, but she loves it. After all that, I know some are tired of snow-yet here in Dallas, this much has not happened EVER since records kept, so hang with me, just one more time! I wanna share more of Snow Storm 2010 before it's all a distance memory--(wow, that was so literary!)-which will probably be by tomorrow! 

Oh wait--get this, Tommy got the idea to bring in snow, from Angel and Kirby's Mom, so we could check it out. Heck, she knew we weren't about to get our feeties all cold and wet! Tommy didn't have the flash on--so it isn't the best picture Mommy and Brother Earl Gray or ME--s'OK.

ME!!

Do U See What I See?

A few weeks ago new bird landed in our back yard

A pigeon with a speckled face. Just him for a long time

Even to the point when Tommy put out food, he

stayed his distance, yet sat and waited for Tommy

To pour the food. He's been showing up about

Every morning and some evenings

Ate with the other birds, yet he always came: ALONE

Until now.

Perry and Mommy took great notice.

Tommy wonders how many more pigeons?

One moved fast enough his photo got blurred

I wonder if the pigeons know how much

Windows screens save them-

After all-they are nice and plump and.......

Just Easy Like Sunday

Are you getting this???

The pigeon returns!

Brother Earl Gray gives Tommy instruction

On this day and pretty much every day

Time to relax after a hard day of camera work

How it should be

Just Easy Like Sunday

Enjoy!

Of Course

Our pigeon is outside. Tommy takes bird food (after she fed us, of course) and fresh water out to the birds. Every other bird flies away except the pigeon. It kinda lingers. Walks close to Tommy and then backs up. Tommy puts some food on the ground. And the pigeon knows where the gettin' is good--and kinda comes closer. Tommy sees his face and more of his colors. Yep, a pigeon-with black and white feathers and speckles. What's strange is--this the ONLY pigeon we've ever seen in our yard. Tommy and the pigeon look at each other. And of course, the pigeon is just inches away and Tommy does NOT have that stupid camera! The one time she does need it...and NO. Maybe tomorrow.

Yea. We just yawn or sneeze and Tommy's all up in our Fancy Feast. This is my "OK, I"ll look at you, but not being the all cute kitty look your want-you gotta work for it" pose.

Humans, of course, we gotta keep em.

* Sigh*

ManCat Monday Mystery

Perry (I try my best to not call him Cranky Ol Sour Puss much)

Looks out over his savanna

There's this bird--which of course is SO far away-

Yet has Perry's attention

Had Tommy's attention too.

It got closer after Tommy snapped this picture, but

Perry had lost interest and bailed

Tommy thinks it's a pigeon, but says the face doesn't look pigeon-y

So we have a mystery bird amongst the rest and squirrels

At least Perry had some entertainment until he bailed

The "TODAY Show" was about to start

Perry wonders if Matt Lauer has a cat

ManCats are curious about the world and wonder alot.

That's how we roll.
