Hey y'all (I suppose I should change it up and write "Hey youse guys" but it wouldn't have the same cachet):
Shelly -- *snork* Had to scratch deep to get the joke, but I did! (And "Orange." back to ya.)
Jon -- I think he was entranced/annoyed by his reflection. Either that, or he wanted to get to work on some 3-D art, since the door opens to a sculpture classroom.
am -- Well, thanks! It was a revelation for me to wander an art school grounds yesterday, and find a peacock eyeing me back. And I can't recommend James Merrill enough -- his work's indescribable.
I saw a male peacock flying in a film about evolution. Darwin was confounded to the point of cursing by the peacock, a seeming contradiction of survival fitness.
The solution was only recently discovered, in studies where the male's tail beauty is actually a good advertiser of his other genes fitness! A woman in Australia did the research.
Gorgeous AND funny. Are you really an omnivorous poetry reader, or do you search for snippets that go with the photos? Mine tend to be more cliched, and it is sort of embarrasing.

Never doubt the dinosaurian nature of birds.
But my own nature wonders if he's waiting for his date to answer.
Or if it's his own reflected beauty that he wants to join.
I love this photo and O LEAVE BEHIND THE FEATHER OF PROOF. Your photos are a daily revelation. Thanks so much, Lori.

Wow. I've been away for a while -- what a stunning bunch of photos (and tags for them!) Thank you.
No way! That is too funny! :D
I love Jon's comments above.
