On Sunday morning 5 roosters make noise to wake up the whole village! It's time to get up to make a beautiful day of it otherwise the sun shines for nothing! What a waste, everything turns grey in winter, we get so little sunlight then we should now take advantage of it. Please enjoy it while you can!

Here is a little bit of fun to put the 'Happy' into Happy Fence Friday'

Captured at Aberfoyle, Stirling, Scotland. On arrival we were delighted to see a man with this sweet little dog rounding up these ducks, which I believe are Indian Runner Ducks, taking them over an obstacle course and ending at the 'Quack Packers' Hostel!!! It provided us, along with the small crowd that had gathered, with a lot of amusement. The ducks were hilarious.

In the main image they looked like they were having a discussion about their chances of 'legging' it!! In the first PiP one has decided to give it a go but the dog was having no nonsense from them and in the final PiP they are heading back to the hostel!! I guess that makes him a 'bird dog'.

No, these are not hallucinations, they are really a zebra and camels grazing in the pasture (animals from the circus that stayed in town).

BONNE ENTENTE... Non, ce ne sont pas des hallucinations, ce sont vraiment un zèbre et des chameaux qui broutent dans le pré (des animaux du cirque qui a séjourné en ville).

SIE KOMMEN GUT MITEINANDER AUS... Nein, das sind keine Halluzinationen, es sind wirklich ein Zebra und Kamele, die auf der Wiese grasen (Tiere aus dem Zirkus, der in der Stadt verweilte).

2 more pictures in notes above! :)

This morning after my photo shoot, I was about to head upstairs when I noticed a dark blotch on one of the dog's water bowls. Freezing, I wondered excitedly, "Could it be what I think it is???!" Slowly peering down to get a closer look, a pair of froggy eyes peered back at me! YES!!! A PACIFIC TREE FROG!!! IN THE WATER BOWL! WOO HOO!!!

I backed up and quietly got my camera, put on the macro flash and returned. I think I heard something like, "Oh no... that human is back... I know, I'll keep really still and she won't see me!!" Instead, I cooed at it, "Aww, just look at how cute you are!" as I began taking pictures. Froggy began to sink down the side of the bowl, while seeming to say, "Lady, do you realize that you're blinding me with that pair of blazing suns you have there?!" I took a bunch of pictures as he creeped around the inside of the bowl and then climbed up to the lip, preparing to leap. "That's IT! I've totally had it with you and your Blasting Light Rays of Blindness! Not cool! Not cool at all!!" Unseen by us, a fly on the wall hears the commotion. Cackling gleefully, it mumbles to itself, "Now this is one show I gotta see!" Down it zooms, into my view, and then, to my complete surprise, right on the frog's head. Froggy yells out in my general direction, "INSULT TO INJURY!!! I CRY FOUL!! First you blind me, then you follow me around this bowl and keep flashing suns at me, and NOW THERE IS A FLY ON MY HEAD!" *fly blows raspberries at the frog and me* "BWAH HAH HAH HAH HAH!!! I AM THE PHOTOBOMBING FLY, HEAR ME ROAR!!...or well, hear me blow raspberries!" *Janet clicks the shutter release exactly ONCE* The fly zooms off, cackling into the wild blue yonder and the frog leaps off the bowl, screaming, "GOODBYE, CRUEL WORLD!!!" ... and lands on the soft plush rug three inches below. I pick up the squirming froggy, who's screaming, "GET YOUR FILTHY PAWS OFF MY SILKY DRAWERS!!!" and I carefully cage it in my hands, run some water over it to get rid of the coating of dog hair and take the enraged amphibean outside where it crawls onto a leaf spluttering obcenities at me as I leave, and I coo an affectionate goodbye to my darling little friend. Living in the countryside is so much fun!! :D

Sophocles (c. 497/6 BC – winter 406/5 BC) is one of three ancient Greek tragedians whose plays have survived. His first plays were written later than those of Aeschylus, and earlier than or contemporary with those of Euripides. According to the Suda, a 10th-century encyclopedia, Sophocles wrote 123 plays during the course of his life, but only seven have survived in a complete form: Ajax, Antigone, The Women of Trachis, Oedipus the King, Electra, Philoctetes and Oedipus at Colonus. For almost 50 years, Sophocles was the most-fêted playwright in the dramatic competitions of the city-state of Athens that took place during the religious festivals of the Lenaea and the Dionysia. He competed in around 30 competitions, won perhaps 24, and was never judged lower than second place. Aeschylus won 14 competitions, and was sometimes defeated by Sophocles, while Euripides won only 4 competitions.Wikipedia: Sophocles
