Papaver orientale "Patty's Plum"

First bloom on a new plant in my VERY tiny garden.
The following are three successive crops from a second photo. I am a happy camera kid.

Toto-2 and Mr. Monkey

"Beddy-bye time for doggies."

Toto-2 has gone to sleep with Mr. Monkey, in exactly this pose, every night of his life since he came to live with us 14 years ago.. Mr. Monkey was a gift to Toto-2 from Toto-1. Toto-1 surgically removed both arms, both ears and the long tail before giving Mr. Monkey to Toto-2. I guess he figured it wasn't safe for a baby till all appendages were removed.

Scientists are checking for DNA evidence to determine whether this photo was taken by Gooserock or Puget4.

Two Heads are Better Than One.

Here are the two Totos...hard at work hunting for small rodents in the vineyard. Gooserock was looking for a photo to go with the mixolydian Irish reel, "Dogs Among the Bushes".
