Tuesday photo: Night guard dog.

For some reason I want to see this guard dog in person. He/She looks cute. The faded drawing to the right is also interesting.

Monday Poll: Which baby animal do you like better?

The starlings are telling me it’s spring. They come to Nashville in March by the zillions, and I think they all hang out in the alley behind my apartment. It’s their spring break hot spot.

And welcome to October.

Spring is for the birds.

It’s been nice enough lately to leave my windows open at night, and early this morning that led to an interesting wake-up call: a mourning dove sitting on my window ledge, hooting away at the sunrise…or a mate…or something. This little dove wanted to let the world know without any doubt that he or she [...]
