Last year at the MN State Fair, I witnessed a calf sucked back into its’ mother’s body after part of it had been sticking out for a little while. I had been wondering when someone would do something to speed up the process, because the whole thing was getting very boring. When the baby got snarfed back up, I lost my patience. I can’t linger around for hours and wait for a baby to fall out of its’ mother, I’ve got shit to do (and eat).

Shirobu

In a video on YouTube lasting just over a minute in length with nearly 4.2 million views, a Himalayan cat named Shirobu reclines at a table. (The Japanese title translates into “Dandyism,” according to Google Translate.) His large furry body is propped up with pillows. We never actually see Shirobu partake in any of the Japanese food or drink arranged in front of him, although he appears to chew on something small at the beginning of the video. Instead he grooms himself, pausing only to look around the room blankly for a couple seconds.

Green

This is from a few summers ago in Duluth, MN. We were across the canal, waiting on Minnesota Avenue for the Aerial Lift Bridge to go back down while heading back from the beach on Minnesota Point.

Dried Roses

Tiny Toad

A small American toad (Bufo americanus) likely within their first couple weeks of life without a tail (or ~6 weeks old total). As you can see, they really enjoy tricking you into thinking they are some sort of vegetation.
