LIVING IN THE WILD IN THE CITY

FIRSTLY, I JUST GOT TO GET USED TO PUTTING PHOTOS ON THIS BLOG, IN MY NEW VISTA FORMAT..THIS MAY BE RIGHT. I CAN SEE AT THE END..SO, I LIVE IN A SMALL CITY. ON ONE OF OUR MAIN STREETS, RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO MY BANK, WAS AN OLD BARN THAT HAS BEEN EMPTY FOR YEARS. (I LIVE HERE 20 YEARS, AND IT HAS NEVER BEEN USED..AND LOOK AT THAT: THERE ARE NOW ABOUT 6-7 HORSES AND PONIES GRAZING ON THE GRASS. KINDA NEAT, YEAH..THE LIZARD AND A FEW OTHERS LIKE IT LIVE SOMEWHERE BEHIND MY CONDO WHERE THERE IS A CANAL. IT LEADS VIA LOTS OF OTHER CANALS RIGHT TO THE ATLANTIC OCEAN. I IMAGINE PEOPLE WHO HAD LITTLE LIZARDS THAT GOT TO BIG TO KEEP AS PETS LET THEM LOOSE. SO EVERY NOW AND AGAIN I SPOT ONE..THIS MAMA WAS WITH HER BABY, MAYBE ON A FIRST RUN. THE BABY RAN DOWN ALONG THE WATER AND MAMA STOOD BACK AND WATCHED. BABY MADE A TURN AND MAMA WAITED. SHE FINALLY STARTED TO LOOK FOR IT..BY THE TIME SHE WAS UNDER MY WINDOWS, SHE HAD LOST IT..I DO NOT KNOW IF SHE EVER FOUND IT..NO PROBLEM. THEY ARE HARMLESS AS THEY ONLY EAT GRASS, BUT LOOK MENACING. THIS WAS JUST A FIRST ATTEMPT AT PUTTING ON THE PHOTOS. SO SEE YA
