Kitty's Corner

I like going for a walk by the lakes. Yes, we do have lakes here, even in the big city. Five of them, to be precise, and they are my little oasis. I like sitting here, gazing out over the water while pedestrians and dog walkers and bicyclists pass me. I let my mind wander, it's so soothing. I feel like I've had my batteries recharged after half an hour of just sitting.

Anyway - you know that I never leave home without my camera. This day a couple have brought some bread for the ducks and swans. They start throwing it in the water, and it only takes one minute, then the entire flock of gulls have heard the news and are ready to steal any piece of bread that get near them.

Here's three gull fighting over a piece of bread:


And when that is eaten, they look for the next piece:


But wait, there are other animals that would love to get a piece of bread. It took this fella two minutes of very begging eyes and low whimpering sounds to get a bite:


And its "mum" wasn't thrilled, so she yelled from far away - but the bread was too delicious to be ignored. This is what the poor dog looked like when the mum approached:


You know, you really shouldn't give dogs food without asking the owner. I had a dog who was allergic and couldn't just eat anything without getting sick. And since the dog never said no to offered food, ... well, you get the picture!

Anyway - it was a nice day. Nice and quiet.

I love when kitchen staff is showing off, only for me.




Have a great day!

The last time I went to the Zoo it was a grey day. That means that some animals are more active than they usually are. I mean - if you go there on a warm summer day, you can be sure that the lions aren't doing anything but sleeping.

But look at these cute attentive lion cubs:


This was quite funny. I haven't seen them paying any attention to the audience before:


And the last pic for today:


It was a nice day at the Zoo - I'll post more pics later!


Have a great weekend!

I was bored the other day.

Extremely bored.

So I played a bit with a couple of photos in Photoshop. Here's the result:




And so the evening went.


Have a fantastic Sunday!
