Unidentified Flying Object

Doesn't this ceiling fan look like a ufo? Or maybe a satellite. It just takes a little imagination!

Why oh why do I only have boring birds at my house?

I think the above photo is of a finch ...
... and this is a sparrow.

Blast from the past

Does anyone remember what these are called? I used to collect them as a kid, and for the life of me I can't remember what they were called. I think it had the word "whacky" in it. Any help would be appreciated!

Absolutely no dignity

As you can see, my dog Jessie took the nose dirt thing to the extreme today. I just had to document it.

old clock

Here is a picture of a clock my grandparents gave me. It was made in the late 1800s, and I really love it. It's been in my family since it was made. My grandfather loved clocks, and he did some work on this one. My grandparents also had a cuckoo clock with pine cones on chains -- you pulled on these to keep the clock going.

The clock above is definitely one of my favorite possessions. It would be the first thing I would grab (after my animals!) if there was a fire. I'm glad I was able to take a nice picture of it.

My new camera

Here is a picture of my new camera. It's a Canon Rebel XTI. The funny looking plastic thing over the top is used to soften the flash.
Here are a couple of pictures I took using the flash diffuser:
To the left is a picture of Mandy, who is mad. She's 17-years-old this year and she doesn't like to be bothered. Thus the glare. There's a cat glare but no light glare thanks to the funny looking camera attachment. And yes that is my toilet in the background, and I need to pick up my pajamas. Concentrate on the cat!


And here is a picture of Pedro:

Pedro never gets mad. I imagine I wouldn't even get a rise out of him if I pulled his tale, he's just a very docile animal. He never complains.

I'm still trying to get a decent picture of my little cat, Chelsea. She is not docile, and I grabbed her by the tale when I was trying to give her medicine and she bit me.

I hope to post some more photos this weekend, including some non-pet pictures. Thanks for taking a look at my creations.
