Another hot Carolina day.  I had a hard time keeping my pots from getting too dry before getting all the feet cut.  It seemed like one moment they were slightly leather hard and the next on the way to being too dry to cut.  I got them all finished and then managed to drop a couple of bowls on the floor.  Oh well.

Loupie took the day in stride, just laying around on the lawn mower.  I think he went for a roll before his nap, he’s awfully grassy and dusty.

Karma and I are sharing our space with this mother wren and her chicks.  She’s in and out all day with food.  That one fellow is giving her a shout for more.  I was thinking it was almost time for the little ones to leave the nest, but  I believe it will be a bit longer.

Does this cloud look like a rabbit to you?

    Yup, whale. The things you might see as ears are the tail fins. Great whale, I think. Orca?

    Great shot of the birds.

    I see a rabbit Ron.
    Loved your list of inspirations. For some reason the dog on the doghouse one struck me. Must be me thinking of Snoopy.

    I, too, liked your list of inspirations. One question: if you hate bluegrass bands, why decorate your pots as such?

    Well I just put that on there. I doubt I ‘ll be drawing any banjos. Unless they are getting ran over by 4×4′s

    Most definitely a whale. And I love the shot of the Carolina wren. We have some that come to our feeder station and they are some of our favorite birds!

    hey Ron…here a few banjo jokes for you….

    What’s the difference between a banjo and an onion?
    No body cry’s when you chop up a banjo.

    How do you know if the stage is level?
    If the banjo player is drooling out BOTH sides of his mouth.
