Camera Critters #27

Camera Critters by Misty Dawn, go here to see who's participating.

I had two other post that I had started but I came up with this one to honor Misty's CC reaching one half a year. This is the Kent State University homecoming parade for 2008 These are all the critters in the parade. The first is Flash, a Golden Eagle, the KSU mascot.
Here is a Wini-the Poo / Uncle Sam lookalike.
The Child Development center had a friendly giant Dinosaur. The KSU radio station named after the Black Squirrel.
This is their fancy dancing Black Squirrel.
The Lions Club had a Lion running loose in the street.
The Black Squirrel with the white whiskers was waving to all.
This is the main reason I was their, Mrs. Fishing Guy and her Excel program. Granddaughter Princess brought some candy over to Papa which I gave to the friends I was with.
I will get back to real live animals next week, I promise. I do hope you had fun at the parade.

    Yes I did, I did have fun at your parade, esp. since we have nothing like that in Jerusalem.
    Excel sounds like a good thing.

    Now fishing guy, I certainly wasn't expecting these kinds of critters :) Cute!

    Took a run to the lake this evening, the 'gills were hitting on top. With the autumn colors and nice mess of filets it was a perfect evening. What made it even better was two adult bald eagles were there also.
    Later,

    "Louis" is wondering where the cow critters are in the parade...

    I don't think there is anything much more fun than going to a small town parade.

    Thanks for taking me downtown with you.

    Thank you visiting my blog and I saw the difference between herons and egrets! I also find the specimen of the egret I have shot in my region(Campinas-SPaulo-BR). It's a camerodius albus.

    Have a nice week!

    Parades are fun--almost as much as real live animals. You're allowed a deviation periodically!
