Chippy Redux




No, there is not really anything new to report on the Chippy front, but I did manage to get a few really cute shots of him recently, and I just wanted to share them with you. (Be sure to click on the pictures to see them in large.)  My house is inches deep in dust and my garden more nearly resembles a field at this point, but still I waste time taking pictures.

But I'm having fun, so I guess that counts for something.  When my kids were little, they had a program in their school called D.E.A.R. -- an acronym for Drop Everything And Read.  They would stop whatever subject they were studying at the moment,  pick up a book and read,  just for fun.  

So what do you suppose my acronym should be?

    Great shots Mary. I must be a really noisy person because the wildlife scatters when I attempt to capture them on film.

  7. I wonder if reading blogs counts in DEAR? It is way too addictive and my house is a mess, yet again :)

  15. Well I may have a video of Chip eating out of our hands on my blog, but not ONE of my photos comes even close to what you have captured here! The enlarged photos are amazing - look at those liquid eyes! They are such sweet little things, aren't they? I have an award for you on my blog, Mary!...Donna
