She is not often here, but yesterday it seems she enjoyed the warming sunshine on the fence in the backyard
And he don't mind at all, to steal the cat food
Yesterday afternoon, after the big heavy rainfall, I had a new visitor in my garden. I called this Ibis bird "Harry". He was very busy picking at all the fat worms, snails and other "bug-goodies".
May I introduce you to "Jimmy"......?
What the heck is he spying on?
Happy Chicken Family - but "Papa Rooster" is still the boss on the spot!
Mmmmh...kids, come over here to pick - the corn meal is special good today!
He is getting ready to fight for his territory - sneaking in to the scene from behind.....
...and started blowing up his feathers already, then he saw me coming closer with my camera - and he changed his mind! To bad for the photographer - I missed probably some very nice cock fight pictures!
These two guys were first to wake me up this morning - much too early -
And he was wearing his best bow tie - extra dressing for my birthday , I guess.
And she showed me her wonderful new make up - more extras for me.....
And she started to sing me a birthday song: quack, quack, quack..... and then she left!
You will see them even at the cemetary picking for food and crowing
I call this one "the dancing rooster"
And as he saw me coming too close with my camera he run away, like running for his life.
Today we are visiting the wildlife of Key West. Yes, we have one...! Take your camera and follow me:
You will discover a typically - lazy - cat on Simonton Street....
You will meet the sophisticated cats - some with six toes - in the garden of Ernest Hemingway's house...
Please don't disturb this pelican at Mallory Square....
And you will be wondering why are all over and every where you go so many roosters and his chickens around you. Many, many, many years ago they used them for fights. No more today. Since then they are wild living and took over the island.
To show them all the important things in life, like how to hide and to escape is chicken Mamma's work also...
...ebenso alle Gefahren aufzuzeigen die auf sie lauern, sie zu lehren, wie man diese umgehen kann, ist auch Chicken Mamma's Aufgabe....
And how to get to the other site of the street? Stay all together...and run!
Und... wie ueberquert man eine Strasse richtig ? Schoen zusammen bleiben, keinen Schritt zu weit nach Links oder Rechts - und rennt los!.... so ist's richtig.
Comm'on Baby....you can do it...!
Wer ist denn da so langsam heute...?
