Mine?

If you have ever seen "Finding Nemo" I need say no more.



No your eyes do not deceive you. He has only one leg. I wonder to myself sometimes (and if you know me you are wondering also) how I always find the hurt, the maimed and the injured creatures. This little guy met me as soon as I parked the Jeep. I no sooner shut the engine off and he landed right at the hood of where I was... posing. A normal thinking person would say, hey, of course! They are trained to stalk the new arrivals since they are usually traveling supermarkets arriving daily with nice bread or crackers to offer to the sky scavengers. Me, I know better. This guy like so many others are drawn to me because they are hurt or injured. I am like Dr. Doolittle to them ..... it is the weirdest thing. I have lots of stories and picture or video proof to back that up too ............... Someday I will do a series of pictures from the past just to show you how serious an issue this is but, for now lets get back to my latest model :)
