We're here.
I feel like my online presence is going to be limited for the next week. I'll be reading blogs, probably not commenting.
And as to posts?
We'll see.
But here's a few pictures.
Brad.
He is magnificent. Look at those tail feathers. The display is called a train. I didn't know that and had to look it up. His train must be over seven feet across. And the detail and colors are mind blowing.
It's mating season and there are no peahens in the vicinity which does not prevent Brad from feathering up the way he has. In fact, I think he was giving me the eye there. And anytime I got close to him he'd do what is called "train rattling," and his feathers vibrate and thrum. I understand this is also will-you-mate-with-me behavior.
Poor Brad.
Last night's sunset over the Sebastian River.
The lion pool at night.
One of the noble lions in profile. He doesn't spit at night.
One of the beautiful bouquets in the house when we arrived.
It's all in the details.

Brad is absolutely stunning! I did not know those were called trains. Is he just in the backyard there? And I love the arrangement they left you. Enjoy your trip! -Nicol
ReplyDeleteThat third picture of Brad doesn't even look real! Enjoy your week. Blog land will keep.
ReplyDeleteI kept thinking his name was Bob....but Brad certainly befits his countenance much better. He is devine..... enjoy your stay in paradise

Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAll is good and you've arrived in your happy place.
Enjoy.
P.S.: If Brad drops a feather or two, they do look lovely in a vase. I have a vase holding a few peacock feathers and I do not tire of them.
That is not a bouquet-- that is plant material made into sculpture!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! Enjoy your time away ... like you need to be told! LOL
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the time in your beloved Roseland!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful holiday. Brad looks like a Vegas show girl:)
ReplyDeletePoor Brad indeed. The sunset by the river is gorgeous.
