Flamingos and Koi

Flamingos and Koi, Milwaukee Zoo

Okay, I KNEW my flamingos were not as brightly colored as the ones at the Milwaukee Zoo. When I saw the ones there, I was like, yes! That’s the color they should be! And you can see the koi swimming nearby.

So is this a different pink variety, or is it all about diet?

I love getting pictures of koi, which are beautifully colored. These all came up looking for a feast. They remind me of my puppies.

These I caught on the perfect day. It was just light enough, just shaded enough, that the pictures look surreal on this fall day.

Because of boarding the puppies for so long while I was in Milwaukee and New Mexico, they get a free day spa. That means a day of play and baths. So after they got me up at 4:45, they’re sleeping, little monsters, but that will change soon. I’ll take them in as soon as the place opens, they can play, get their baths, and I’ll pick them up. And while they’re away?

I can write. 🙂

Have a super great hump day!!!

Shadows: Flamingos

Flamingos and their shadows

I love reflections and I love shadows.

The puppies sometimes still bark at shadows. And shadows can be scary, camouflage, define an image in simplest form.

Have a great day!!!

I love the water. I love the trees. The willows remind me of my hometown in California. I love the reflections.

Have a super great Monday!

The Snow was Where???

Apr26

I’m writing a teasing post about all my Northern friends who have been plagued with snow and flurries and the like and will probably get more before the spring is through. But I saw so many trees and flowers in bloom, I said I’d post about that and show what it’s REALLY doing up north. lol

Then I couldn’t download my pictures from my camera to my Surface. *sigh*

I’m home now, but my camera’s on switch was turned on while it was being jostled in my bag, and so charging up my camera now. Unpack, washing towels from the disaster before I left, and repacking. 🙂 <3

We went to the zoo in Milwaukee, but didn’t get to see the wolves. I asked someone who works there and she said they’re sixteen years old. They were out in the morning, but sleep most of the day.

But they had peacocks all over. They are truly beautiful.
