Bear time in December


Old man bear wearing on his T-shirt a print of the American flag wants to meet

Winnie-the-Pooh

and little White Bear is introducing him.



Among the ordinary bears came Winni-the-Pooh who certainly is not an "ordinary" bear



When the bear's company is gone

gets quiet in the

bearhouse!

It is time to look for a place to sleep, because soon



evening falls on the backyard of the Bear's House

with a chili winter sunset.

This is a very good time for bears

because they love to sleep in the winter!

night and day

It was early before sunrise. The moon was above my neighbor's house.
I was late. A little earlier the moon was much bigger and lit up the place with bright but still mysterious moonlight.

In the morning the windows were covered with fog.
The outside temperature was cold.
I put some cover at the window seal to keep some cold air out.
It happened to be a beach towel what I bought years ago in Spain. Brought back memories about wonderful warm times.

There are no more leafs on the trees, getting ready to be covered by snow in these days.
But the evergreens keeps the green color going all the time.
Thank God for that. I believe the color of
HOPE
IS
GREEN.

holiday spirit everywhere

Busy time for most retail business, but selling live animals is a little different.
Little budgies are popular: does not cost much and a little bird in a little cage...... That is enough!
Birds are made to fly not kept in a cage!
No matter how small a bird is: wants to fly and be free just like you, my dear Reader!



Turtles are excellent model to take photos! I wish I would not do this in a "pet" shop, because I don't see how a turtle can be a pet? Doing what?
Above all: how to take care of them? Where do keep them ? In a box?
In a garden, where can be too cold for them?
After the initial excitement ( of the children getting "presents" ) these "pets" wound up in a place where nobody knows what happens to them.
Many are on the endangered species list facing extinction.
Mostly because of the human's activities..
______________________
So much for the "holiday spirit" where live animals are the merchandise.

underwater





Finally I got what I was looking for.
First of all: a Friendly store of a Pet Shop!
They welcomed me with my camera and let me go on the difficult road to take pictures of fast moving fish with the glare of a flashlight.
I have done such photo adventure in the past, but not with good results.
Now I had ArgO fish photo to find "company" for that single photo which is a very good pic!
No question: took many many shots, but very few usable pic!
Need more exercise and the store people like it!

toys for children


Snoopy with his Christmas deco and Orang wonder about a dog having antlers coming from his head?
In preparation for the Christmas presents stuffed animals are popular here to give children without the
improper gift of a live creature what is really
not a toy.

Thinking about Christmas


Snoopy ( The dog) and Orang ( The monkey) one night gotten together to make some plans for Christmas.
Snoopy already got some things out of the closet, put it on and woke up Blue Bird.
Well than let's see how does it look a dog with silly decoration?
This photo was taken at midnight. Blue Bird let them see how they look and the animals demanded more pic to take.
See the next post. ( actually will come up before this!!!)

last thing first

No need to tell you: blogging goes in reversed: the end of the story first.
This "funny" blog really starts at" splendid opportunity" :-)
