    Thank you I am always changing that Gravatar, probably trying to find one that doesn’t scare anyone half to death before they have even set foot on my Space… lol

    As for the wedding… Yes I did see that kiss on the balcony, how simply romantic of him, I guess that it’s a Prince kind of thing? lol

    Be good now Monica, but never too good…

    That is a really cool video of nature at its finest.
    I like the haiku too, suits the video really well.

    Hi Androgoth, I was pretty wicked, but now I must get back to normal. I hope your weekend was seriously wicked – did you watch lots of the wedding festivities? I really like your new gravatar, too.

    weekend doing this, that and the other? Just be

    Odd but beautiful? Oddly beautiful? Such grace, Kenny – isn’t that beauty? oh well, we can disagree about this, my friend.

  7. Monica's avatar Monica says:

    So nice of you – yes, it was very joyful.

    Hello Monica. another of natures wonders.
    This technique of fishing has resulted in the survival of it’s species. Although it is a odd looking bird it is one of natures winners.
    Not a pretty bird, but proves that looks are not everything. Sorry but i disagree with your idea of the Pelican being a beauty !
    Be well my dear Monica.

    That’s perfect – conjured by Lewis Carroll. I can see that.

  11. Monica's avatar Monica says:

    Hello Androgoth, Thank you – and you know I always enjoy my visits to the Dark Side.

  12. Monica's avatar Monica says:

    pelican ballet – nice, Pen. They seem to be such gentle birds – not like swans, with an attitude. (I just saw “Black Swan” – help.) Not that birds don’t need an attitude.

  13. Monica's avatar Monica says:

    I love the idea of this as dance. You wonder how pelicans can be so graceful with that enormous beak.

  14. Monica's avatar Monica says:

    Thank you, dear Laz.

    Pelicans are just the most delighful and bizarre creatures, Monica – I think they must have been conjured to life by Lewis Carroll 🙂 Thanks for the lovely haiku and video.

    for calling into My Gothic Realm…

    You are of course always welcome…
