Tidepool Dogs II

Do you wonder what goes through the mind of dogs?

"Hey, Fido, look over here. See what I found. Check out this fish."

"I can't come right now, Rover. I'm tracking a crab. How do they walk sideways? I can't do that, and I've got four legs just like them."

"These marine creaturs move fast. I'm getting tired and dizzy trying to chase them. I think I'll head back up to the beach. I've trained my owner to throw me sticks. They are much easier to catch."

(Tomorrow, I will post a photo of what these dogs were chasing.)

    magiceye,

    Thank you for your compliments and encouragement.

    magiceye, I notice that you operate a daily photosite for Mumbai, India: http://mumbai-eyed.blogspot.com/. My wife and I were in Mumbai a year and a half ago. What a remarkable city, country, people and culture. My wife likes to take pictures of people, and we have a wall of photos framed in our house of photos of people in India and it is the most popular and striking art in our house.

    This is such a nice photo. I like the concentrating attitude of the dogs. Fish...?

    yoshi,

    Thank you for your comment. I hope my teaser about what the dogs were looking at will not disappoint you when I post it later today.

    Your Daily Photo site for Nancy, France is beautiful: http://nancydayafterday.blogspot.com/. I had not seen it before. I have been to Rheims, Dijon and Metz, which appear to be not too far from Nancy, but I have not been to Nancy, yet.

    I saw that you had a recent photo of the monument of the battle of Verdun. There was an article in the newspaper today, as there is now just one American alive who is a veteran of World War I. The sacrifices that people of his generation made are astounding. You in France undoubtedly have a much greater understanding and awareness of World War I than in other countries, such as the U.S. Americans do not study history enough. Your general during that war, Marshall Foch, I think is honored with a tomb in the Invalides in Paris that has a spiritual quality to it, when the light comes through the stained glass and casts a blue glow on the bronze tomb and pall bearers.

    Thank you for visiting my website, and thank you for sharing the excellent photos on yours.

    I do visit and I do comment and I was here. I did look at your picture(s) and I did read what you wrote about them. I could say how great you are and how beautiful your work is but alas I would soon run out of things to say on the next blog I visited, so I just left this to prove I stopped and said a few words on Sunday.

    My Rheumatoid Arthritis hurts so I am using the same message for all.
