I took my corgi, Zoe, to Pet Therapy today. She very transactional -- treats = love.
My mutt, Tegan, thinks it is always her turn to go to the hospital. She's very upset that she didn't get to go today.
Next time, Tegan. Next time.

Darwin the Wonder Corgi loved to wrestle with the garden hose as it was blasting out water. He always let it win.

Zoe at the pet therapy luncheon. Don't let her expression fool you - she'd snatch the food off your fork.

Kingfisher diving from a branch. It was preening moments before and still has a downy feather in its mouth.

Last June: A black-billed magpie with the male cones off the pine tree in its beak. I have no idea if it eats the cones whole, or pecks them apart to get at the pollen or ... what?
But with a magnificent tail like that, who cares?

Magpies and crows were not very happy with something in a pine tree. When we looked, it looked back.
Very proud of this one because I have never found an owl on my pwn before. The magpies helped, of course.

I am going to pet therapy today. Tegan the mutt reminds me that it is her favorite thing to do. I am not going without her.
Zoe the Corgi is jealous only because she knows treats will be given, but not as many will be given to her.

Male gadwall paddling in a fast-moving stream. He's not as flashy as a lot of ducks, but I love the delicate patterns of his feathers.
Also notice the comb on his bill for straining food out of the water.
