cat, bird

i snapped eliot a few minutes ago; he's quite camera shy and this is one of the best pictures of him i've been able to get. he's pretty shaggy; he has an appointment to get shaved this coming friday.

a day or two ago kara took this picture of a bird among birds fighting over the figs in the tree in our backyard. i like it. i don't know what sort of bird it is.

current word count: 1,457. not so bad for two days. can't get cocky though; got to keep it up.
