Happy Tails: Emmy
Image by LollypopFarm
I adopted "Emmy" on 12/23/10. Her name is now Rainey. Full name of Rainey Monkeyton Ethridge. She now has a friend/big sister, my 10-year-old cat, Billie Ferretotious Difranco (another Lollypop Farm cat).
They will sleep next to each other, but not often because Rainey sees Billie's tail and must attack it. She loves to play, especially in the tub as long as the water is off.
Rainey is extremely lovey and follows me around most everywhere I go. She is also quite the purr machine.
Just wanted to let you all know she is happy and loved, and her Pittsford Vets report that her initial checkup is good. She finished the ear meds and is in good health. Thank you for taking care of her so that I could adopt her.
Billie thanks you too. Well, maybe not yet, but she will...

"Other Conditions"

I *had* to take a shot of this - the clause about "other conditions" has become somewhat of a trademark for our family regarding my health (or lack thereof) and it came from this Disney caveat!

This is one of the many wonderful cats you will find at the Orange County Animal Shelter. Many of the cats are sent to the adoption center of various PetsMart stores, but you can also come to the shelter to meet them.
You can find info on adoption hours and costs at: www.petfinder.com/shelters/orange.html

If you want a cat to be a friend to your current pet, wonderful! If you don't have any other cats at home, consider adopting a pair so they have company.
Orange County Shelter cats are adopted as indoor cats.
Already have a full house? What about blogging about our wonderful shelter cats to help get them homes? Thanks!

The way through the large basin in the Barcelona aquarium. As you can see there is a small automatic way moving through this.
One of the funniest things I saw there was one of the signs that explain which species there are in the basin. One of those showed a diver with the explanation "Homo sapiens".

Near Prineville, Oregon, "going batting" means hunting for the actual vampire-like mammals and not hitting the cages!
A group of employees from the BLM's Prineville District and the Ochoco National Forest along with several hearty volunteers recently headed out to participate in the 2012 Oregon Bat Grid Surveys.
These surveys are designed to gather information about bat species. Surveyors record bat calls and check overall bat health.

Looloo is cute

Looloo is a 2-mos old chick with floofy feathers. She was rescued from the mouth of a feral cat after being dumped (or after an escape). She was nursed back to health by her rescuers who were kind enough to keep her until she was big enough for the flock.

NYC - AMNH: Mammuthus Primigenius
Image by wallyg
Mummified face and forelimb of Mammuthus primigenius
The woolly mammoth inhabited regions above the Arctic Circle in North America, Europe and Asia during the Ice Ages. It became extinct at the end of the last Ice Age, about 12,000 years ago. Nevertheless, we have a good idea of what it looked like because of mummified remains, such as those of Effie, and because the animal was depicted in cake paintings by humans living at the same time. Such evidence has established that Mammuthus primigenius was covered with long hair and dense underwool. This hair gave the woolly mammoth its name and helped protect it from the freezing arctic temperatures.

Soldadinho no pé de pinha / A "little soldier" in a sugar-apple tree
Image by Marcio Cabral de Moura
O cabeça-de-negro (Annona coriacea) é um arbusto ou árvore pequena da família das anonáceas, que ocorre no Brasil). Possui folhas ovadas, coriáceas, flores amarelas e frutos bacáceos múltiplos, grandes, comestíveis, com sementes tidas como antidiarréicas. Também é conhecido pelos nomes de araticum-do-campo, araticum-dos-lisos e marolinho.
O fruto, muito saboroso, é conhecido por fruta-do-conde, pelo fato da primeira muda da espécie, vinda das Antilhas, ter sido plantada na Bahia, em 1626, pelo governador Diogo Luís de Oliveira, o Conde de Miranda, conforme relato de Pio Corrêa. Em Pernambuco, Brasília e interior do estado do Rio de Janeiro a "fruta do conde" é conhecida como pinha, sendo plantada atualmente no Vale do São Francisco, incluindo a fruta modificada sem sementes. Somente em 1811, a espécie foi introduzida no Rio de Janeiro, por um agrônomo francês, a pedido do rei Dom João VI.
É também conhecido no Nordeste do Brasil como pinha ou ata. Quando está maduro, o fruto abre-se.

Membracis foliata Linnaeus, 1758
kingdom Animalia - animals » phylum Arthropoda - arthropods » class Insecta - Insects » order Hemiptera - Bugs » family Membracidae - Treehoppers
Annona squamosa (also called sugar-apple, or sweetsop) is a species of Annona native to the tropical Americas. Its exact native range is unknown due to extensive cultivation, but thought to be in the Caribbean; the species was described from Jamaica. And in Indonesia it become extinct.
It is a semi-evergreen shrub or small tree reaching 6–8 meters (20–26 ft) tall. The leaves are alternate, simple, oblong-lanceolate, 5–17 cm (2.0–6.7 in) long and 2–5 centimeters (0.79–2.0 in) broad. The flowers are produced in clusters of 3-4, each flower 1.5–3 cm (0.59–1.2 in) across, with three large petals and three minute ones, yellow-green spotted purple at the base.
The fruit is usually round, slightly pine cone-like, 6–10 cm (2.4–3.9 in) diameter and weighing 100–230 g (3.5–8.1 oz), with a scaly or lumpy skin. There are variations in shape and size. The fruit flesh is sweet, white to light yellow, and resembles and tastes like custard. The edible portion coats the seeds generously; a bit like the gooey portion of a tomato seed. Sugar-apple has a very distinct, sweet-smelling fragrance. The texture of the flesh that coats the seeds is a bit like the center of a very ripe guava (excluding the seeds). It is slightly grainy, a bit slippery, very sweet and very soft. The seeds are scattered through the fruit flesh; the seed coats are blackish-brown, 12–18 mm (0.47–0.71 in) long, and hard and shiny.
There are also new varieties being developed in Taiwan. There is a pineapple sugar-apple, which is similar in sweetness but has a very different taste. Like the name suggests, it tastes like pineapple. The arrangement of seeds is in spaced rows, with the fruit's flesh filling most of the fruit and making grooves for the seeds, instead of the flesh only occurring around the seeds.

Kipahulu Valley
Image by tslaks82
The Kipahulu Valley was deemed an ecological preserve in 1967 by the Nature Conservancy and the State of Hawaii. The valley is a prime habitat for many rare plant and animal species, some of which have previously been thought to be extinct. Access to the Kipahulu Valley is restricted to the general public due to the fragile and highly threatened environment.

Long-Legged House Centipede

This Centipede is named the House Centipede but it is not found in houses here.
It is more common in caves and forests but unusually it was found in this drain.
Many of it's legs had gone missing, especially on the left side, probably due to attack from a large predator.
Name: Scutigeromorpha > Scutigeridae > Scutigera sp.
Size: about as long as a man's palm
Location: Nirvana Memorial Park (cemetery), Tuaran, Sabah.

A very small bird, probably fallen from its nest. Looked as if asking "who are you, big guy, what's your name? I'm a small bird and, in a few days, I will learn how to fly in the sky. Will you come with me?" Nature is always fascinating to say the least!
