Mr GBH really trying for just one goodnight kiss.

Just thought I’d pop in to wish you all a great weekend and a very happy and healthy New Year.
Debbie’s ‘One Word Sunday’ this week, is ‘Odd’. People can quite often have odd things at the bottom of their gardens. Some swear that they have fairies, but I remember an old children’s song which started, “There’s a worm at the bottom of the garden and his name is Wiggly Woo.” My neighbour across the water from us has something even odder than either fairies or a wiggly worm. Unbeknownst to her, there is an alligator happily sunning himself on the sandbank at the bottom of her garden.
He appeared to be sleeping with one beady eye on the look out for anything tasty passing by.

It’s Mr. GBH heading for home after a good day’s fishing.
It’s been a good week and on Wednesday, hubby and I were fortunate enough to receive our first Covid19 vaccinations. Our second ones are scheduled for early March, so now I feel much more relaxed about the family coming to visit in early April. Wishing you all a relaxing but fruitful weekend.
What could be better than one great-horned owl in your backyard? The answer is “A pair of great-horned owls.”
Wishing you all an ‘owlsome’ weekend.
Yesterday through my bathroom window, I spied with my little eye………..a huddle of white Ibis congregating for Thanksgiving.
No doubt they were giving thanks for the abundance of insects, small frogs, snails, worms and fish to be found along the water’s edge.
Our Thanksgiving was quiet, peaceful and delicious and I’m sure we’re going to be eating cold turkey for the foreseeable future, not to mention the delicious Tiramisu I made for dessert.
Wishing you all a great weekend. Stay safe.
Rosie Spoonbill really likes to look her best for her photo shoots. It takes a lot of work to get those pink feathers just so.
Almost there; just adding the finishing touches.
Now I’ll give my wings an airing, just to be sure everything is perfect.
A little later, she appeared in my backyard for a bathroom window shot.
Wishing you all a safe and peaceful weekend as you find the beauty in every day.
Debbie’s ‘One Word Sunday Challenge’ is Wet and who hasn’t got some photos featuring water?
Here is where I would really like to be at the moment, in Umhlanga sitting on a bench looking out at the Indian Ocean.
Here in Florida, there are many birds who enjoy getting wet, like Mr Peli.
Last spring we spotted a few wet baby alligators enjoying a swim.
If you want to see a serious amount of wetness, then go to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. Although it’s neither the widest nor highest waterfall in the world, it still happens to be the world’s largest sheet of falling water, and you can’t get much wetter than that.
Hope you’re all having a great Sunday.

Yesterday, Lizzie looked just like she was flying up in the clouds, with no wings.

Debbie’s ‘One Word Sunday – Nosy’ Challenge’ reminded me of this fella who, having climbed into the hibiscus bush outside my bathroom window was peering intently at me as I emerged from the shower. Luckily, I had my camera to hand to record the evidence of this nosy Iguana-shaped ‘peeping Tom’.

Yesterday we were driving merrily along behind another car, when it suddenly came to an abrupt halt, seemingly for no reason. We waited a few seconds before seeing why. A gaggle of Egyptian geese having decided that the grass was greener on the other side, bravely waddled out into the road, obviously having faith that they’d be seen and given safe passage. It was their lucky day.
American film director Abraham Polonsky once said, “If you don’t get killed, it’s a lucky day for anybody.” I guess that’s one positive way of looking at life.
Wishing you all a safe and enjoyable weekend.
