A great slide show. Sorry to hear about Puffin, that was a lovely tribute. All the new photos, joy and laughter of 2008 are quickly approaching, Hooray!

Even, if I did NOT vote for them, they ARE my fave! :) I don't want Jack's ego to inflate too much... Or he will need a bigger castle! :)
Godspeed, little Puffin! :) And a Happy Yippy New Year to all! :)

Hooray for the lorikeets Melissa!!!! Allllmost 2008, we will have to wait a little to find out what Jack will be up to afterwards ;) Just then he deposited something big and warm for my morning of the last year. RIGHT DOWN THE FRONT OF MY PYJAMAS!! *ewwwww!*

The slide show might warm those who are freezing right now Red Mojo :) Poor Puffin, her Husband is a little lost but staying here during recovery. We will be playing in the sunshine and water for January!

Jack's ego wouldn't inflate too much MerlinPrincesse because his Red-Collar sets him apart and above the Rainbows. However it was sweet of you to vote for the UGLY channel-billed cuckoo and Mini :)

MerlinPrincesse is a MERMAID all ready for the pool party!

happy new year to you and jack and your whole crew. don't let jack warm you up like that again please--yuk!

xo to you!

We should all pay special attention to jumping, snuggling and grooming like how the Lorikeets do, KJ :) Happy New Year to you and your family also! Jack chooses to warm me up more than anyone else because my reaction isn't so 'violent' ... because I am in a state of frozen SHOCK! He just didn't make it to the Castle in time, better than leaving it somewhere secret as an even nastier surprise :) Hugs and kisses! Hhehhee

Happy New Year everyone! I'm still amazed at how early you get up to post these pics! I'm glad the lorikeets won. They're cheeky but soooo pretty. Right . . .off to practice shooting birds in focus!

MAPPY NERRY YEAR EVERYONE! Hhahhaaa I have a MASSIVE headache and will visit you all as soon as can look at the computer screen more than I can now :)

Early bird catches the birds Baino. I leave the focusing up to my camera when it's early ;)

Miladysa, Jack says BWARK and he likes the fan when it's close to 30 degrees Celsius :)

Best you stay in bed Simon for the first of January ... I'm seriously thinking of doing the same! Or falling into a birdbath :)

Happy New Year to you and your Bearman TsDuff, hoping to push the sublime more in 2008!

Merry New Happy Year MerlinPrincesse, HAHHAA you're no more mixed than I!

That includes YOU ElizT :)

I'm sure Puffin had the best of times in the AnonyBackyard.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Miladysa said...

My blackbird was indeed a blackbird as in 'Sing a Song of Sixpence' Anon.

Unless of course it is Mrs Blackbird who is brown! Don't ask me why - they must have been named by a man ;]

Here's to 2008!

Hope you have a year's supply of party food MerlinPrincesse! Hhehheee

Puff in DID Modroom! She had a full life even with the horrible beak and feather disease ... she was even given new feathers once by a nice vet :) HAPPY NEW YEAR Modroom!!

I always thought the illustrations to that song looked like Ravens Miladysa! Or they were men who drew them because none were BROWN! Hhahhaaa. CHEERS! (oh dear, I'll never rid this headache)

Annie Jeffries said...
