Wish Upon a Wing

Today, while out buying fish in Berkeley, I was limping back to my truck (back & leg issues) when in front of me appeared a crow or raven also limping.

Was he making fun of me?  Showing sympathy?  Just a fellow creature with a hurt of his/her own?

Before I could ask, the black bird flew away.

I wish I had wings like that.

Recovery Cat

Motley, laid up with dehydration and injured legs.
She'll be 20 on April 1st.

Sunflower Seastar

Slightly out of focus, but still fun: the effect of surge on a point-and-shoot camera.

Arms like tentacles.
