Sights/Pics/Thoughts from the week....
Work and Wildlife
This picture of a cute, little bunny was taken with my cell next to our garden at work. As you probably can gauge from the trees and brush our program is located on the edge of the wild. And this is where I prefer to see wildlife. In the wild. Not scurrying down the hallway, seeking refuge behind the file cabinet in my office, as occurred on Thursday. After about 10 minutes, 4 of us managed to catch the petrified field mouse and return him to the wild you see above. If only these were the only two critters we have seen. Thanks to the four birdfeeders located near the garden (and the OCD birdseed tendencies of one or two folks), it often looks like a scene from Hitchcock's The Birds out back; we have a handful of ferral cats that lay in wait for those unsuspecting birds, and some creature that looked to be a cross between a wombat and a beaver (we never figured out that one, but I am not crazy, I think it was you Alex, that saw it too, waddling through the garden...). Then there was the mountain lion, and the pterodactyl. But that's a whole other story......
The above picture was taken on morning this week, I thought it was a beautiful scene and wanted to capture it. This is how I prefer to experience my commute vs. this.....
Not sure which is worse, the ominous clouds or the miles of brake lights....
And finally, here is a shot of my babooshka at the beach, he's my happy little lark.
