Alpacas on the Square

For a complete change of pace, I wanted to share a picture of these 2 alpacas I saw today at the farmer's market. They were selling lots of cool things made from their wool.  Or, perhaps I should say, lots of warm things! ;)

Have some cat.

May need a bit of salt and pepper.

Socially Acceptable Rodentia

There is an ill-fated chipmunk loose in my house.

My cat chased it around for a while and lost interest.

Now, my dog has decided that it needs to be eliminated at all costs. Since I am sitting here in a soft leg-cast (see previous post) and can't safely hobble about to interfere, I must instead simply watch.

Poor thing. If it were something less socially acceptable, I wouldn't be rooting for the rodent.

Watch out!

I heard this story on the radio. Apparently, in Warwickshire Wildlife Sanctuary in Warwickshire England, there is a cockatoo who is fervently guarding her eggs against all possible intruders. The only problem is, they are chocolate Easter eggs!!

Pippa, who is, apparently, a man-hating feminist vampire cockatoo, threw one of the Cadbury Cream eggs at a photographer, and bit the neck of a builder recently. Talk about maternal instinct!
