Pic Spam!!

Last week mle292 complained that I wasn't posting many of my pictures for hundredpics.
So now y'all get a big ol' picspam post of some of my recent stuff!

Because this is LiveJournal, we'll start with the required Picture Of A Cat.

Here is my beautiful Lumpy girl:



I went to the member's preview of this summer's African exhibit last week:



And I saw a tiger there today:



I've taken a bunch of flower pictures:

I've also added a few more birds to my collection:

And last, but certainly not least, we got a new couch today!!

Nice lazy day

Today I get to be a slacker. :)
Yay vacation!
Right now I'm sittin' on the comfy new couch watching These girls. I don't know if the movie is supposed to be any good or not, but it will have nekkid David Boreanaz and that's really all a person needs to know. *grin*
I've got a porketta cooking in the crock pot. Mmmmm. The house smells good!
I need to start putting some of the living room stuff back, but I'm not feeling ambitious enough yet.

I win! and a blog pimp!

Two of my pictures posted yesterday were of birds.

The first one is obviously a Red-winged Blackbird.




I was using my field guides to try to figure out what the brown bird was (it's so much easier with birds that have color!) My best guess was that it was a female Red-winged Blackbird, but I wasn't confidant enough to say for sure.

So I did what any sensible person would do... I emailed an expert!

I was right! The Birdchick says so. :)

I started reading her blog a couple months ago after following a link from Neil Gaiman's blog and I've become hooked. This was right about the time I started having so many bird sightings while doing my hundredpics photos.

If you have even a vague passing interest in birds you should check it out. Also, she has a really cute pet bunny!

So, to sum it up, I was right, the brown bird with brown wings is a Red-winged Blackbird, and the birdchick's blog is cool.
