Andrew Y. shares a corgi who tucks itself in.
What a cute puppers!
He has less trouble getting his blanket sorted than I do..
And here I was feeling stressed because the vet changed Minnie’s medication again, I can’t even imagine how stressful it would be to help a baby bird break out of its shell. And then disinfecting and feeding of something so small.
I approve of the booby boogie
boobgie
who is that delightful critter?
A google image search suggests it’s something called a Yarblesnoof from King’s Quest which appears to be a game.
I just googled “boogie woogie woogie” and it was one of the results. I was originally going to use one of people doing the electric slide but I didn’t think the link would embed properly.

First, the females of this species obviously do not scare easily!
And second, this reminds me of my favorite teeny spider dance!
I love that corgie pup so much.
The bird dances😳 and the baby bird hatching!
