Frosty Morn

Woke up to 27 degrees and a heavy frost. It has turned out to be a pretty sunny day with a high of 45. Except for stepping out briefly to get some photos, I've not been motivated to go out. Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy

The perfect spot

This is a neighbor's cat but he may as well be ours since he spends 90% of his time in our garden. We call him Chester. He has the sweetest personality and has the oddest choice for sleeping areas. When he was smaller, he would curl up in a pot of portulaca on top of the garden wall but I guess he outgrew that. Now he prefers the birdbath.



Ah, the life!



Uh, would you get out of here with that camera so I can get my beauty sleep?

    Ah, he's well positioned in the bird bath. Do you think he knows?

    It's really a good thing we can't read their minds!

    He's doesn't have a care in the world. Animals are so entertaining. :-)

    He has the perfect spot to catch a bird(-: He is just pretending to be sleeping...

    What adorable pictures. I just love having cats in the garden. We have our orange cat and the neighbor's black cat sleeping in our back garden all the time. Their calm, peaceful nature lends a zen-like atmosphere to that area.

    He sure does dress up an empty birdbath quite nicely. I love cat pics. I have three of my own.
