Saturday's Critters a day late

 

For many years I had tropical fish, and in the small tank, gold fish. 

From the internet



My own photo of Swallowtail on the butterfly bush.


Pup Zora and my son just relaxing!

Sharing late  this week with Saturday's Critters.


Several dogs were on the trail to High Falls on Thursday last. I feel for their paws, because all the fresh gravel was sharp and big pieces.

    Are you like me and sometimes forget what is in the queue or even what day in is?

      That wasn't the problem this time...I just was having a birthday on Saturday this year!

    Hello, Barb
    I am always happy to see you and your post, a great variety of critter photos.
    The aquariums are pretty, love the sweet deer, the cat meme and the dog with your son.
    Oh those poor doggie paws, I hope they are not hurting. Your butterfly images are lovely.
    Thank you for linking up and sharing your critter post. Take care, have a great week. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.

    Great critter photos! I love your header, it's a piece of art. There's a nice likeness of a dog (at least for me) looking in the big hole of the downed tree.

      I remember lying down on the floor like that. On purpose. Ten years ago!

    Loved these! I am not hating deer this year, since they have left my garden alone! Last year I would have cheerfully wrung their stinkin' necks. Thankful for my good pups, and that blowy thing that keeps waving around and scaring off critters.

      Good to know there’s a way to live without deer eating your plants.

    Love the beautiful critter photos! That swallowtail is stunning, and the shot of pup and your son relaxing is just heartwarming. Hope your birthday was wonderful too!
