Sleeping Shelf
It’s been a while since Domino bothered to go to the top of his cat tree… but, after making the effort, it seemed sensible to chill for a while.
2012: A Year of Transformation
Take a big, fat, wheezing, dying man… Open his eyes to the world of compassion, make him Vegan, give him good food, throw in a lot of walking, add a dash of weight training and blend in some running… You end up with a much happier soul. 308lbs down to 168lbs… 100lbs done in 2012. 52inch jeans down to 32/34inch now… Nice!
Happy New Year plant munchers x
Time for some photos of the before, the after and some big trousers!
As the Spice Girls used to say… Two Become One. Nothing like getting in a pair of jeans with the wife… one in each leg!
Sparrowhawk
Sparrowhawks are small birds of prey. They’re adapted for hunting birds in confined spaces like dense woodland, so gardens are ideal hunting grounds for them. The sparrowhawk is the bird of prey you’re most likely to see in your garden. They are sometimes confused with kestrels (which have dark eyes), merlins (which are birds of open country) and goshawks (which are far rarer and very shy).
This was in Dad’s garden and had just killed (probably) a sparrow – it’s quite hard to tell from the remains what it was. He took this photo.
