French Pink Limonade

Could this be the reason all shearling coats are lined on the inside only? This beautiful sheep doesn't seem too concerned however.

I just walked past these hand-carved pigs and snapped a photo without rearranging them. They were probably part of a Noah's Ark. I should have taken the time to move them around for their debut on my blog but I didn't. Sorry. It's Sunday and these were Sunday toys. Check back, my OCD will make me take another picture. :-)

There is big melting going on at the cottage this morning. Those footprints in the snow are mine, all mine. The birds are thrilled that I finally filled up their feeders and there is a flurry of activity. Tabitha is happy too. She loves to sit behind the slider downstairs and watch them and sun herself at the same time. Cats really know how to entertain themselves, don't they. Enjoy your Sunday; I'll be back in a bit.

A Bluebird and A Double Rainbow
I've never been lucky enough to get a shot like this. You know I love bluebirds and have them here at the cottage. This has to be the ultimate happy photo of a bluebird and a double rainbow. I love it.

Still Life with Books
Very nice art photography. I love the crackled face on the clock. This is certainly the perfect weekend to practice your still life photography or actually curl up with a good book in front of an open fire. I'm going to look for an old movie to watch later.

Mid-century Street Photographer and Nanny: Vivian Maier
Self portraits by Vivian Maier, Street Photographer and Nanny
Take a break and watch this wonderful video about a young historian who discovered the vast life work of a talented unknown photographer. Vivian Maier will enjoy posthumous fame and hopefully will be embraced by fans who want to buy prints. If you live in Chicago you will want to attend a showing of her photographs this month. I found out about all of this while visiting Piewacket.

Snowy Landscapes At The Cottage
These landscapes with snow were snapped late yesterday along with Webster's pics that have already been published. He loves it when I tell him his fan club is still going strong. Have a great weekend.

Maybe we'll get more snow today and maybe we won't. The sky is gray and it's really cold so we'll just have to wait and see. Photo from yesterday. Even the weeds are beautiful with snow caps, aren't they. Have a great weekend. Be back later.

Bundles of Bat Babies
Baby Bats are swaddled in tiny blankets while trying to recover from the Australian floods. I saw this picture on the nightly news and was delighted to find an article about these cute orphans and their caregivers with more photos right here. I wish I could find a picture of them hanging on the clothes line. That's what they do to these bunting babes when they come out of intensive care. Awwwww.

Webster enjoyed his romp in the snow looking for the fox this afternoon before he ate his dinner. The last photo is something I picked up at a tag sale. It's a dog made from flower pots and I think it was decorated with moss at one time. Today's snow is the perfect ornamentation.

I've seen so many handsome foxes on my property today but can't get anywhere near them. Webster considers them his mortal enemies because no other 4-legged animal is allowed within his territory. He knows the entrance to one of their dens and is always sniffing around there. I honestly hope there is never a confrontation. We never let Tabitha the cat out alone because of them. They are beautiful animals and they eat mice which makes them heroes in my book.
