This is a special pic for one of my human bloggin’ friends. Yes, JM, there is a Santa and a Sawfish.
Yes JM there is a sawfish!
I loved your Narwhale post, Accidental Stepmom! Here is the answer to your question. My human says that when he was young (wheels were square and made of stone then) these critters weren’t that rare. He almost stepped on one that was eight feet give or take a foot. This is what can be called a pants soiling experience.

May 31 – How quickly they grow up !!

How quickly they grow – if you can see them
On my previous post I had a picture of Natalie the Night Heron sitting on her nest. This is an update! As you can see the eggs hatched and Natalie is now the proud mama of her (?) babies. I mean they’re ugly babies. After taking one look I had to ask her, “Natalie, I don’t mean to pry…but who is the father?”
“Why Norman, of course.” It was apparent she was offended.
“Well…I…But…” It’s hard to speak with your paw in your mouth. “They don’t look much like you or Norman. Sorry.”
”Look, Sandy we don’t have a cushy house to protect our kiddies like you had as pup. The Geezer and his missus pampered you if I remember correctly, so you could be a miniature furball. My babies have to be camouflaged so Sneaky B, the black snake, Ronny racoon, or Otto the otter don’t make a meal of them. Tell me you could see them at first glance.”
I answered honestly. “No I didn’t see the chicks until you flew back to the nest and fed them.”
The Geezer walked up at that time. I asked him, “Have you seen Natalie’s babies?”
“What babies?” The Geezer stared across the canal into the mangroves like a blind bat.
Natalie snickered. I tried to save his reputation as an “outdoorsman” by pointing out. “Over there, in the nest.”
“What nest.”
It’s bad enough that human’s were at the end of the brain line when the Maker was passing them out, they were dead last in the eye-sight, ear, and nostril lines as well. I mean, if they didn’t have thumbs………….

May 8 – Me and the Manatees – A dog’s day communing with nature.

My human always accuses me of being verbose. If I’m verbose, he’s loquacious, tedious and garrulous. However, I’ve decided to take his advise this one time and let pictures and videos tell the thousands of words I’d normally write to describe yesterday.
I do have to put my day communing with nature in some context. It started with me piloting our boat and pointing out the spots the Geezer could catch some fish for supper. While we were out on the water I had the opportunity to renew acquaintances with some frequent visitors to our canal. This time we met out in their natural element. Madeline the manatee is one of my favorite people. She’s kind, has a nice baby and fun-loving friends. And, I saw some feathered friends while on the trip. Here’s my trip in pictures:

As I said, pictures are worth a thousand words. In my case maybe 100,000.
