flurry
On Sunday, April 15, 2018, I noticed a bit of a flurry
in the backyard out of the corner of my eye.
A second glance sent me scurrying for my
camera to capture this image.
My guess is that hawk tired of mudlark’s
persistently aggressive behaviour
and decided to end the problem.

wayward
We can only assume that it was the wayward behaviour
of two teenage dogs that changed this scene into…
…one of carnage.
At the time we searched everywhere
for a replacement for our Miss Saigon statue.
Alas! No luck.

A great spectator sport.

monkey
During our first Botswana breakfast we were
unaware that we were being observed
by beady little eyes.
By the time our guide was telling us not to
leave bags unattended, it was in the processs of
stealing an apple from MGW’s handbag after which
it scurried to the highest vantage point
it could find.
I am not a fan of monkeys.

sleet
Perhaps not quite sleet…
…however, freshly falling snow…
