Who eats more in a day ?
A growing Hippo
Or
Figgy's tribe.

Please ask more difficult questions

Can't sleep and didn't want my coughing to wake Donna up. So camped out on the couch.

I'm quite certain that's the reason

Although not as extreme as what this guy did, this reminds me a bit of the story from yesterday, about the father of the 3 gymnasts--when he tried to tackle the offender in court. Completely understand his actions. I saw on the news today that he apologized to the court, etc., and the judge did not charge him, due to the emotional circumstances. (Thank goodness . . .)

Yea, I would have put off my reaction to that sicko just like the guy in the video. He didn't kidnap that boy to charge the family for a ransom, he wanted to molest him. My skin crawls. That was justice on top of justice with extra justice sauce.
Only semi-sad part is that POS didn't spend his last years in prison getting his cheese kicked in every single day of his sick sad existence...
What a pile of shut...!!!!!!!

Oh. Sorry. Do you have any honey for your cough? The medicine that @Cesar R M recommended(Broncholin), reads like it would work well. Putting your head over a steaming pot of water will help also. Are you taking anything?

 

[Figgy1]

It's a must.

Not if you grew up where I did

I am on day and nightnurse and bronchostop.

I can't help with poor taste in films

Oh. Across the pond stuff. Hope it works.

 

[Figgy1]

Getting up at 7am isn't a lie in for normal folks ... just saying.

Ha my tribe has had breakfast most mornings by 6:30 on vacation

What she said X2

Step out your comfort zone. Youll thank me for it. Or hate me .

It is really good! We both loved it.

 

[93boomer]

I have a bad cold. I woke up this morning coughing and struggling to breathe so made an appointment to see the Dr. £51 later there is nothing that she can do for me and my lungs are clear as a whistle . All i can do is just let it run it's course and not die.

Aww so sorry! Feel better soon. Hey clear lungs are a good thing-from one that knows!

The original was better than the Marky Mark re-make.

The remake was incredibly dumb and the special effects even dumber and unbelievable. (the Twister one)

 

[Cesar R M]

What she said. I assume the orangey bird is a raptor of some sort. What is the blue?

The bird of prey is a young Harris Eagle that is used to hunt for invasive species(or species that have no natural predators after moving in) that invade the mangrove reserve I visited. Also to curb the overpopulation and prevent the destruction.

The next one is a yellow crowned night Heron if I remember correctly.

Also I'm happy to mention that the streak backed Oriole birds are back near my home. These noisy guys are beautiful to see.
They usually come in january but its been unusually cold and constantly cloudy.

Was waiting for a bus, so I transferred the photos to my phone from my camera from today. My camera is AWESOME. Now I'll post some while on the bus.

We were at AK today. I got the baby hippo!

Loving that baby hippo!

What camera you have?
I do not remember if you had told us the brand and lens.

I believe it is a canon dslr. Not sure what model.

 

[StarWarsGirl]

What camera are you using?

Canon EOS Rebel T6. The ones of the animals are with a 75-300 mm lens. It's a really nice camera. Easy to use for beginners like me, but it grows with you.

They also last. My mom has a previous generation model from 2010, and it still works very well. Mine has a few features hers lacks, but they're otherwise the same camera.

@StarWarsGirl nice pictures of Animal Kingdom today. Although I think there was one with a bat...I had to scroll quickly past that one when I realized what it might be. I could use a spoiler for those scary types of pictures. Hope you are having a great time!

Bats are cool. They've got those awesome wiings but those cute little heads. Iin the summer, I see them flying around the backyard at night. Eating mosquitos. Which they are more than welcome to do.

They are welcome to eat all the mosquitoes they want but I get creeped out just looking at them, even in pictures.
