Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 This week the flashback features Eric and comes from April 2008.

There I was just lying on the patio table........ lazing around in the sun like you do.......
When suddenly I heard a noise.
Yes I can definitely hear something in the hedge.
It's going upwards.
It's nearly at the top. I wonder if I would get into trouble if I climb the hedge to investigate.
Ok I won't leave you all wondering what's happening. Mr and Mrs Blackbird have got a nest in there and mum says I have to leave it alone. I'll bide my time. You can't always be watching me mum.

As Eric had the post this week Flynn gets the random photo.
The Trout Towne Tabbies asked for 27.06.14. It didn't matter how hot it was, Flynn always liked to sleep in the greenhouse. It must have been too hot for his plant pot though.

I am joining Athena, the Cat Goddess for Caturday Art.

For Eric I started with Fairy at 60%, then added Sadness at 25%.

For Flynn I started with Landscape at 75% then Psychedelic at 50%

That was fun managing that hedge fund and the art is so good!

Well, i would stay away from bird parents, they can be fierce.

That greenhouse looks like the best place for a snooze.

Summer said...

I hope the birdies were able to steer clear!

Birds can get rather nasty if they are defending a nest! The robins here scold our pups a lot, even when they are just passing by...
Thanks for the puzzles! The greenhouse really got brightened up with the art effects.

Your flashbacks always make me smile :-)

I like the art versions too quite clever

Have a flashbacktastic weekend 👍

Smudge said...

Sweet flashback with your well-behaved Angel Eric. Angel Flynn sure looks like he picked the best spot for napping.

Kea said...

We love your flashbacks, it's always wonderful to see them both. And you do such a terrific job with the artwork! Paws up from Derry! :-)

My Mind's Eye said...

Hey my darlin' gingers. I giggled at the hangovers of paws and a head.
Looks like there is an intruooder lurking in the hedges. Oh I have some mighty fine photos of our friend's kitty Charlie aka Sir Charles. He belonged to folks down the street but they were bad owners. Charlie started staying in our fiends carport. He is 100% outdoors only but they did manage to capture him for neutering. And he has gradually become tolerant of an annual trip to the vet for shots

Eric how interesting that you have that Blackbird family right there so you can keep an eye on things. Your Mom knows that she needs to keep an eye on you both MOL
Flynn that looks like a great snooze spot and really pretty art my friend

Sandee said...

Mum can't be watching all the time. You were right about that. That made me smile. What a hot place to nap though.

Thank you for joining the Feline Friday Blog Hop.

Have a purrfect Feline Friday and weekend. ♥

Eastside Cats said...

Funny that Angel Flynn liked to sleep there!
Off to puzzle; thanks!

Three Chatty Cats said...

What a great series of shots! Must've been so hard for him to leave the nest alone.

Greg_1948 in_WA said...

Leave the birds alone! How nice it would be to have a greenhouse to visit and sleep inside!

Hedge watching is an art!

Pam and Teddy said...

Some noises are VERY hard to ignore!! Love all the photos as always....the Greenhouse is a snuggy place for a snooze.

It was probably a good idea to listen to the peeps and stay away from those baby birds and parents - the big ones can be nasty sometimes.

We love your art - you always have such beautiful works.

Lovely art and memories. Yeah, my mum always tells me to leave the birds alone too!

Hairballsandhissyfits.com said...

we have some robins having babies in the bush near my porch and I think all my kitties are also planning to bide their time!

Cathy Keisha said...

Hmmm, did Eric ever get one of those burds? Axing for a furrend. We had a mourning dove visit this week. I slept thru it.

meowmeowmans said...

That flashback is so great. We love how Eric was sitting on the edge of the table, watching for those birds.
