More Mackerel Mania

All the butterflies have moved on, so you would have thought the mania for using the Mackerel setting on the camera would be over.  But, no.  dad came to Mom and said "Quick, bring the camera with the Macro setting on to the basil plant".    


In other matters, Audrey is keeping up  with her naps and Daddy snuggles:




and Simba keeps his belleh cool with all that floof but lying belly up near the a/c vent!  (of course August was delightfully like Fall, now it is September, it is hot again)

  1. Your mom was brave to get that bee photo with the mackerel! Audrey, you sure look comfy and cozy on your daddy! Aren't they the bestest to snuggle with? Simba, we love seeing your floofy tummy while you cool it off at the A/C vent!

  4. Tummy squee! What gorgeous ginger bellies.
    Just keep the bee at a long paw's distance from you. They bite.

  6. Great pic!
    Yes, that's exactly what has happened with our weather, too. We nearly roasted yesterday at a college ballgame. 108 degrees! Whew!

  7. My human is always trying to get bee photos, but she is a chicken, and I think that is why she has such a hard time getting good photos of them.

    Mom was out photographing bumblebees yesterday with her macro len. MOL
    She complained at how fast the bumbles were. Too fast she got lots of blurry pictures, but a handful turned out.

    And you sure do look comfy under the A.C!

  10. Those bumbles are a handful to take pictures of. They move like lightening when they want to. Your Bumble looks so delightful and Simba...you and I do the same thing but you are so handsome you make me feel faint looking at you. Audrey, keep your daddy busy with you.

  11. Nice bumblebee shot! But Simba cooling off in front of the AC is so funny.

  12. We are hoping that our lovely sunshine will last a little longer. It has been so long since we had a truly good summer!

    Our #1 is a pretty heavy-duty "mackerel" person too...

    Purrs,

  16. We're wondering what it is too - a bee maybe? They do like the basil. Looking good, Miss A! Nice snuggle technique! And your manly floors are awesome as always dood!
