miscellany

Bad guys beware. Some companies are now using ninja birdies to protect their staff and property. This fearsome fighter was so focused on patrolling the lot, that it did not care that I was taking its picture. Usually a ninja will kill you if you take a picture.

In addition to the hidden birdies, they have installed these menacing gargoyles. I tell you, I have rarely felt so intimidated as when walking past this corner.

Humpty Dumpty... was pushed. And that's all I have to say about that.

How very sad about Humpty!

We have similar gargoyles about our town. They can be fierce@

That gargoyle looks pretty fearsome! All the King's men couldn't put Humpty together again ;)

You're really getting some great bird photos these days. Sad about Humpty but I think Mr and Mrs Dumpty probably have more eggs in reserve.

A good thing you were not discovered my friend. I would have missed you posts. :)

Ain't that the truth! Well Lime, not YET anyway.

EG, I hope those gargoyles are on your side.

Good thing you told me Denise. I was just getting ready to blast a mass email out to all the king's men.

Sadly, no Shammy. That was a goose egg on the lawn. We had been watching mother goose (no pun intended) and expected her chicks to be hatched around Mother's Day. Unfortunately, she lost them all this year, and last year too. That's too bad, because I had been looking forward to taking pics of the little fuzzy babies.

Good point, Joan. I will probably post less often when I am dead.
