    Just so, BB. I especially like the “stomach-sucking” description.

    No apologies necessary, Carmen – I am too intermittent a responder on WP but love it

    Very comical, but I think they may find humans’ doubly so. All that hair-flicking, eyelash-batting, stomach-sucking… 😉

    Thank you for sharing these incredible moments, Monica. Sorry for the delay in my reply, the new WP Reader is missing many notifications.
