I have just taken Lucy out for her walk around the lake. All summer I have wanted and tried to get a photo of one of the herons which I often catch a glimpse of down there. Today, not having my camera with me of course, what did I come across but a heron sitting quietly beside the lake, minding its own business. So laid back was it that it didn't bother to fly off even at the sight of Lucy, who was being very well behaved as it happened. Ain't that just typical!!
Before taking Lucy out, I had been up since 5a.m. in a determined attempt to get my homework finished for tomorrow's Counselling class. I need to catch up with what I missed while on holiday. Needless to say, I got a bit sidetracked checking on emails and blogs so I didn't get it finished - hence the procrastination. Must try harder! :)
Life in north east England (yes, we've moved!) with an eccentric Welshman and a small white dog that thinks he's a Rottweiler.

Herons? I often see a heron (Great Blue Heron) wading in the shallows of Hamilton bay, as we make our way to Toronto on the morning train. Majestic, aren't they? And so patient. Perhaps there's a lesson there for us.
Loved your "pets" story, btw. Hilarious! And you're right. You couldn't make it up, could you? LOL!!!
