Sorry for the lack of updates, but I'm a lazy and procrastinating sort. Every time I think about posting, I soon forget and my tiny pea-brain has moved on to something else

Oh, that Pryde of the X-Men toon. I have it on VHS. Canadians, Australians, what's the diff?
These swans are pretty chill. On several occasions I've sat a foot away from one of them, and they don't mind (since I'm quiet and don't move around much). They can be fierce when they want to -- years ago, they had a brood of cygnets, and I was watching them in the park with other people. One man got too close, and Daddy Swan suddenly lunged out of the water at him with wings out. Everybody took a few steps back after that.
Those geese are always jerks, even when you feed them. They hiss at you and chase other geese around, and even bully the ducklings.
Chickens and geese scare me because they don't like me and always charge me if I go near them. Also, I have a legitimate fear of an avian takeover and/or apocalypse, therefore the fact that they have seemed to already organized themselves against me is disconcerting, to say the least.
But anyway.
Cool pics, and wookit the baby duckies. ='333 AND THE TADDIES, UGH. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 And I legit don't know what to say about the not-Australian guy, so I'll just pretend it never happened.
Canada geese are notorious for their general meanness. Once I was walking down the street and one was on the sidewalk, and he blocked the sidewalk while hissing at me. They bite if you get too close, but they're more bluster than anything. And this city is absolutely full of them (and ducks).
I love ducklings like nobody's business, they're the cutest things ever. Unfortunately most of my duck photos didn't turn out well.
The faux Aussie was making really bad jokes that nobody laughed at. I kind of felt bad for him...but still didn't give him any money.
Every spring I go out jonesing to find ducklings to watch/photograph :D Of course my camera card had run out of space the last time a whole bunch of ducklings were out in the open and swimming around. One was swimming desperately against a strong current to get back to its mom, going "peep peep peep!" the entire way.
But Australian stereotypes are the best stereotypes! Maybe the Scottish too. He couldn't go German because the town's heritage is German and people dress as silly German stereotypes every October anyway.
I see, thank you! I doubt the white one is peach, as we used to live near there a few years ago and I probably would have remembered a peach tree (I've never been near one in my life). So it's likely apple.

Suspecting the pink blossoms might also be a crabapple but am unsure.
Watch out for dem swans. You can't trust swans. Those geese look kinda suspicious too.

Chickens!

Those chickens are so funny, with their feathered feet and fluffy crowns. There are a few ordinary chickens too.

Aw, poor weird fake Australian guy. =[ Maybe go for a different delightfully kitschy stereotype next time?

I LOVE the crazy chickens, but I live in fear of roosters.

Why roosters?
