And finally: Duck Patrol!
It takes a village to protect local ducks, in this video found by Dana D.



I saw the story of the ducks yesterday, it’s good to be reminded that there is still good in this world after the horror of Bondi Beach. Also the murder of Rob Reiner and his wife supposedly by their son made me really sad so I can use all the cute today.
Hugs, Georgiana. I hadn’t heard about the Reiner story–crap.
Oh awesome Cutetropolis snow 🙂 Thanks, Mike!
This is indeed a terrible day, but a lil’ snow makes it better!
Also, loving the Cutropolis snow! ❄️
Yay! the snow! Thank you Mike!
You can’t fool ME, that’s Odin.
It’s good to see the trashed panda learning some karate skills.
The new Karate Kid?
I love this one.
Gotta agree about needing some cute today. I’m at the point I’m giving up reading the news.
Gorilla looks like he’s part of Monty Python’s Ministry of Silly Walks. The other winners are funny too. Loving all the animal photos, some of them are just so gorgeous. I think the raccoon needs an intervention. Are we sure it’s not the Rocky Raccoon from the film Guardian of the Galaxy? Fame can do some strange things to people (err, I mean animals). So nice of the town to band together and help out the duckies, and that they found a safe spot to overnight.
Sometimes youtube shows me a video and I add it to my playlist and by the time I get to it I can’t remember if it came from here or not…
Ha, I saw that too! But, I can absolutely see an ornery cat or two still messing with the branches and the ornaments. 😂
Who ever invented that is a genius!! I agree with Dana about let’s see if the cats will leave the ornaments alone. I have a feeling … NOT!
If I had space, I’d get one for year-round use and just not decorate it. Their cats must love having such cool hiding places. So many whapping opps!
Today is so horrible. This year is so horrible. America has become so horrible. Sending this to my brother and SIL because something needs to be nice. Along with this:
Hugs, R&B’s Mom. We’ll get through this.
That song can be repurposed for all occasions. It showed in my Dutch lessons a few months ago and I laughed myself silly.
Some more fun latke music… (I don’t remember where I first saw this, either)
