Leftovers....waiting for better weather

We've had gloom and rain the last few days. Getting colder, too. Tomorrow we may have sunshine and I will get out and take some new photos.....I hope! I just liked this log. I keep wondering if something lives in it. I always wonder that about trees and logs with holes in them :-)
Not on speaking terms?

Snoozing in the sun. I can't imagine why you would snooze while standing on one leg with your head on backwards. She looks a lot more comfortable to me.
Sneaking past them....they didn't even care I was there.
These were bathing before settling down.
I just liked this leaf.....especially with the sun shining through it.
"Ick....do I have to put my feet in that?"
Headless goose.........looks like it belongs on a platter.
Look at those knobby knees! Makes me think of an old man in shorts.
Now that I have put you to sleep for the morning.......zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

I can never imagine how they keep their balance when they sleep like that on one leg. I'd fall over even on two!! LOL!!

...that is a gorgeous leaf. It's a bit dismal here too, but it's good. I need to get some work done now and then! I left when I read the "Not on speaking terms" caption!

Cute ones Mary... I loved them all --including the old man's legs.

I often wonder, when they sleep on one leg, if they ever topple over?????? ha

Hugs,
Betsy

I'm glad I don't have to sleep while standing on one leg. I don't know how it does it. Your captions are much to delightful to put us to sleep.

I don't know why those birds sleep on one leg either. They seem to manage. Love all your sayings Mary.
You've sent your rain and cold weather to us. Hope yours is better tomorrow.
