Broken Bond (p)
When things are left unattended, they tend to break down. Then again, there are things that are tended too much and break down; like government.

Complaint (t)
Cormorant: "You've got to be kidding! I can't even spell Phalacrocoracidae let alone pronounce the word! Who in their right mind came up with that term as a family name? I can hear it now. Hi, I'm William Phalacrocoracidae! What's your name? the ospreys will be falling out of the trees at that one!"

Zeroing In (t)
All you have to do is keep moving. Don't even think about resting. Flutter your eyelids. Wiggle your toes.

Annoyance (t)
Tropical Sage: "These Gulf Fritillary butterflies are a real pain in the butt! Always flittering here and there and sticking their tongues in my ears. Drives me nuts!"

Dark Meat
There was a little celebration the night before this shot was taken. Campfire, beverages, s'mores. This guy was the fire tender. He got a little close. He almost became part of the snacks.

Mr. Obvious
Lucky the Wolf could never get a date with Little Red Riding Hood. She said he drooled too much for her taste!

Bovine Abode
Bossie The Cow got a really good deal on her new condo. She may have to do a bit of exterior painting before her friends visit. Maybe even repair the front door.

Tingly Feeling (p)
Cooper swears this is the last time he goes to Madame Juju's Hair Safari to get his nails trimmed. There's just something about the place that puts him on edge. The experience reminds him of the time he peed on Mr. Olson's electric fence.

Location
Isaac got his first piercing today. He couldn't make up his mind where to place the piercing, so, he let his buds choose. Sure makes wearing a hat hard!

Matter Of Appearance
Thybold always felt self-conscious about having one ear higher than the other. He eventually got over it.

Conan Model
Teddy is pretty proud of his new line of bicycles. No peddling required. Upper body strength is required. The bike sails down hills. Going uphill is a little different matter. Teddy is working on that!

Prick (t)
The Greenthumb family had a history of being gardeners. That was until Notso Greenthumb came along. Notso hated thorns and since most of the Greenthumb family business involved cacti, well, Notso wasn't having anything to do with the family business. Understandably, the family was crushed with Notso's decision.

New Day (t) (p)
Floppy the Jackrabbit really enjoyed sunrises in the oilfields. He never knew what the day would bring. Chomper the Coyote loved jackrabbit more than sunrises.
