This is Six

For my first birthday, we went to the California mountains in CeeCee.

My second birthday we were in our new house in Rio Rancho, NM! This was the year I started all my leggy surgeries.

This is me, when I turned three.  

Mama cut my ears really short that year.

At four my leggies were all healed up.

This is Five, I started my librela shots and life got even better!

 

..and This is Six!

 I'm feeling great and I can't wait to see what the next six years bring!!

FFF - Proud as a Peacock

 

Welcome to Nature Friday where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville. Today, on my birthday eve, I thought I would share a few fun facts about my favorite bird, the Peafowl!

Peacocks are the males of the Peafowl family.

They have decorative tails that make up over 60% of their total length.

They are also known to be fearless...kinda like me!

The average lifespan of the Peafowl is 10-20 years.

The peahen hatches 3-6 eggs a season and sometimes lays an unfertilized "clutch" of eggs away from her nest as decoys to attract predators. Needless to say the females of the species are VERY smart (also like me).

Thanks for joining me as we took a look at the

peafowl. It's fun to see a bird that isn't toootttaaalllly silly!

We hope all our friends get to experience some Nature this weekend!!

Show us your nature! It can be flowers, your current weather, a scene out of your window, or maybe a picture from a vacation, walk or other journey! Any kind of nature picture will do! If you don't see a link below, click HERE  to go to our Hoppity Page.

Sunny's Six Sixth Birthday Thankfuls

 

 Six Sunny Thankfuls of 2026!

1. We are so thankful for how smart Sunny is, she can do all kinds of tricks AND, like her big brother Bilbo before her, she keeps us on schedule...Especially when it comes to snuggle and treat time!

2. Sunny has decided that snuggling is pretty cool. She will come over and lay down in Mama's lap every evening at 8pm!

3. Monthly Librela shots have really worked for Sunny and make a big difference in dulling her leggy pain.

4. We are thankful every year Sunny's reactivity seems to damper a bit more. Today, Sunny is more likely to jump up and join us on the couch than she is to try and bully Rosy off the couch. 

Which leads us to....

5. Family snuggle time! It is nice to see Rosy and Sunny laying down with the pawrents on the couch

6. Sunny's individuality is something we treasure. She has always been a girl who does things her way and we love her for it.

Sunny is such a joy and we are so thankful to have her as a member of our family!

Thank you to Maxwell and Angel Brian for hosting the

Thankful Thursday Blog Hop

Flamingo Friday Fun

 

Welcome to Nature Friday where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville. During Mama's visit to the ABQ Zoo, she stopped to admire the Flamingos (anybody surprised? BOL)

This Flamingo was large and in charge when she was there...

Which was good, because it must have been nap time for the other flamingos.

Mama was amazed at their pretty salmon like color...

I thought they were supposed to be pink, like Flo here but I guess it depends on what kind of food they are eating.

At least these gals have pink legs.....it always amazed us how they can sleep with only one foot down.

Unless, of course they sleep on both feet like these guys. Maybe because they are on the 

ground and not in the water? Who knows....

Click on the picture above for fun video of Mr. Large and in Charge Flamingo.

He sure is a funny flamingo!!

Thanks for joining us for a Fun Flamingo Friday. We sure hope you all get to enjoy some nature this weekend!!
