In other words…World Animal Day… :hatching_chick: :honeybee: :lady_beetle: :swan: :pig: :cow2: :cat2: :dog2: :unicorn: :spider: :tropical_fish: :cricket:…etc :smile:
As a child and for a long time as an adult I did not understand anything about this day … you are always nice to your pet every day???
Meanwhile, here in the Netherlands it goes a lot further than your own pet and I understand it better … but rather no discussion now.
And I wish all animals that come before your hands and eyes an extra sweet look or pat…
Greetings,Rogier

Yes Rogier, the Bull is a work of art - it’s the one that was made for the Commonwealth games that was held not far from where I live.
The Cat image is one I have done, it’s one of my other hobbies, I convert images to digital art and manipulate them to give the desired effect. It was made up from 3 different images and ‘stitched’ together, not quite what I wanted but close enough. The other images were all photos, unadulterated :joy:

The cows don’t belong to me, photo was taken in the Allgäuer Alpen, where my parents-in-law live, but the surrounding is very similar to my home. A lot of mountains and cows. :cowboy_hat_face:
On top, there is my beloved dog Emma :heart:

Unfortunately not today, @roger_holland.

I found the two dogs sniffing at something by the side of the house and upon inspection I found a dead little bird. We had a trial with the two found at the scene of the crime. Both pleaded their innocence and claimed to have only come across the body on their usual perimeter patrols. It must have flew into the side of the house. A shame… it was a pretty little bird.

Hi Anyone reading this,

Happy world animal day :smile:

Unfortunately, a day that nowadays also involves a lot of animal suffering here because the animal shelters are overcrowded and the animals outside in nature are not doing too well :cry:

But I like the good things that`s also part of this or follows from it :partying_face: :sunglasses:

And of course this does not apply to your/my own pets, every day is a holiday for them :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:, but anyone who does something extra for the animals outside today, especially if you keep it up, deserves a place next to Franciscus in a long time :grin:

Greetings and have a lovely day :sunflower:

Goodness, is it that time of the year again?
Well, I’m cooking and eating less animals these days, mainly because I’m the only remaining one in the household who has not gone vegetarian/vegan, and I’m too lazy to prepare menus a la carte :roll_eyes: :rofl:
Here’s an appropriate song from a gig I was at recently, written and performed by my friend Jim Pearson.
Happy World Animal Day :wink:
