    … actually it was more like lake rage … I had been following this loon around for about fifteen minutes and I think he just got tired of me, turned his back to me  and flipped me off. It took a while, but I did get the message, but only discovered the true message after I reviewed the photos on my laptop. I’ve never seen the webbed feet of a loon before and was surprised to see that there is a beautiful pink color to the web portion of their feet. Their ability to articulate the leg is pretty amazing too … the legs are located at the very back of their bodies to help propel them efficiently when underwater.

    I got dozens of these shots and at first I thought that he might have been scratching his back or something, but not a single image shows anything that could be construed as anything other than flipping me off; perhaps that is where the expression giving someone the bird came from? The root system of a sycamore tree down in Phoenix has the same message … Corky and I saw it after a doctors appointment on a very hot day after her appointment and it gave us both a chuckle and the day seemed a little more friendly after that encounter.

    Have a beautiful day … keep breathing and smiling.

    Cheers

    I’ll not bother to reform myself today.
    Perhaps tomorrow — if it is raining,
    and I must stay indoors, and meditate
    on the shortcomings of life.

    War
    War
    By Tommy Acosta
    War…What is it good for? Obviously, it is good for those who profit from destruction and the taking of human life. And what is the common denominator, the impetus for war throughout the centuries? It’s about the acquisition of land, by force, deceit or any other means possible. During the holidays I went to a party where this retired couple were recounting a land dispute they were having with their neighbor. It seems their neighbor was claiming an extra six feet on their property line and the animosity had grown so strong that they were now in court trying to settle whose six feet of land it was. Prior to the dispute they had been friendly but now they had become arch enemies, all for a tiny piece of land. Read more→
