Where the Wild Things Are at Our House

I never really noticed that there were wild things in our yard.  They came in one by one and next thing I knew there was a herd of them.  Luckily they have stayed in the yard and not been liberated by some nefarious person with evil intent.

The following fellow came from a local auction house.  His name is Bob and he likes to lurk in the bushes.


 This is Dillo the Armadillo.  He doesn't have a lot to say.  He lurks by the path that leads to the front door.  He seems fairly peace loving since he has yet to attack anyone walking by.  He hales from Mobile Alabama.

This feathered friend was a gift for my birthday a couple of years ago from two girlfriends and the leader of the herd.  His name is Flip the Flamingo.  He came from Ham Jam at Philadelphia, MS.


 This little guy is quite the scamp with multi-color plumage.  He likes to lurk in the split leaf philodendron.  He's not as social as others in the herd but he's very plucky!  He is a former Florida boy but seems to like living in Mississippi just fine

 Meet Flat Phil Flamingo.  He doesn't have as much dimension as the other boys but he guards his favorite Ligustrum with fierce determination.

Our final friend in the menagerie is Hooty Owl.  He sits right at the front door keeping all intruders away with his fierce face.  Can't get this guy to smile for anything... He came from my Oma's house.

DO you guys have any wild things at your house?  And I don't mean the kids.

LOVE, LOVE, KISS, KISS!
