Sweet Critters

For Valentine's Day, I thought I'd start with bright red cardinal, followed by some soft fuzzy critters.

Saturday Critters / I'd Rather Be Birdin'

Black and White Weekend

Alpacas are often raised for their soft wool. They are smaller than llamas. 

Our next critter is a sweet toy hippo. 


It's been a while since I posted a kitty for Caturday. I used a Cut-out filter on this, doubly so on the background.

The sparrow kindly posed for a moment. I believe it is a white-throated sparrow. 

Today's final bird is a red-bellied woodpecker.  In this pose, you can see why it got that name.
