Today's post is in honour of my grand daughter, Abby. She is two years old today. And she likes cake.
The weather is cold and crappy: not a day to take my camera outside. So I'm posting the picture I took yesterday of a big, fat pigeon at the beach. I grant you, not the most interesting or technically impressive image I've posted, but I thought the "Linda Blair Exorcist" neck twisting thing it was doing was kinda cool - in a weird "check this out" sorta way.

He's a very friendly potcake (mixed breed) and a recent amputee. Though I am happy to report that he's managing on three legs very well.
