It was beautiful today so I packed up the Giant Lens of Doooooom and headed out to my guaranteed green heron spot. It did not disappoint. There were at least three of them at the pond today.
My first fandom was Tolkien (and yes, everything you just assumed about 15-year-old me discovering fandom in general and LotR fandom specifically was probably true) but I've branched out drastically since then to include just about anything with pretty! that catches my attention. And of course, that includes the fabulousness that is Buffy
It was actually your shots of Moose that got me thinking along these lines. At the moment, I've got a vaguely kids-story-really-meant-for-adults in my head. A Care and Feeding of Household Monsters sort of thing. Maybe a Sock Monster who live behind the dryer and collects coins and other shiny bits that fall from pockets (he's a peaceful chap. It's not his fault if lost socks flock to him)? Or a Food Monster who (needs a better name and) lives in the back of the pantry and is responsible for the crumbly bits at the bottom of chip bags because he can't resist jumping on them. And a Craft Monster (again with the naming!) who collects sequins and googly eyes and pom poms, and is singlehandedly the reason you can never find a matched pair of ANYTHING in the craft drawer. And his sister, the Yarn Monster, who nibbles on the unattended stash so that the remaining balls of yarn are just barely too short for their intended project.
