Moonlight May 07, 2020 at 03:07PM

This was shot with my iPhone 11X Pro last night at 15 minutes after Midnight. … The only, and the light casting the shadows on the house is the light from last nights full moon. Calliope heard someone rummaging around in the house and watched intently for the seconds of this shot.

Carl May 06, 2020 at 04:50PM

We have a new housemate. It has taken a while, but now Calliope and Carl have a future together. … What I mean is that they have grown acustomed to each others face. And, even more importantly, they tollerate each other without strict supervision.

A semi-clean Calliope May 01, 2020 at 06:46PM

Semi-clean, because the dirt is washed off with not so clean water. After our walk we went home and had a real bath.

Spilled Seed April 30, 2020 at 07:17PM

When you look close at the stalks that support the Pistle and the Stamens, I am blown away by the amount of pollen that is thrown away.

I mean that as a question. Is there a culling in pollen distribution that advances life as a choice? What I mean is that I get the feeling that the individual pollens are like any man, trying to win the love of a good woman, and perhaps, perhaps those that actually win the pistle, are truely the stronger more intelligent pollens, and not just blown by the vagaries of the wind.
