We encountered this "common pheasant" (Phasianus colchicus) on our walk today. Millie does not care about birds, this one let me get quite close. #faugeres #wildlife #france

a big grasshopper (Decticus albifrons)
the European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus)
Some of the #wildlife in #faugeres #france: a big grasshopper (Decticus albifrons); and the European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus).
Me standing at the side of the path in shorts, sandals, and t-shirt; the shirt with the 1960s comic Space Ghost character "Zorak", which is a giant space mantis (totally fictional of course), known as "Zorak Robert Jones".
An actual praying mantis, Mantis religiosa, perched on my finger.
This time of year, "Mantis religiosa" is very active in the south of France. I love them & will stop & take a pic; to show my appreciation I often wear a t-shirt with the (totally fictional) giant space mantis Zorak Robert Jones of Space Ghost. Yes, it is ridiculous. #mantis #faugeres #wildlife

We have a tempest going on right now. The hens are safe but their run is going to take a bit of work. #southoffrance #languedoc #faugeres
¡Hola! the stone carrying dog in the foreground of mountains.

Timeline cleanse. This morning’s dog walk. Views north towards the Caroux mountain, through the forest that surrounds our house on the way up to Pic de Tantajo, south towards the Mediterranean and on through the forest and home. 25 minutes of pure pleasure.

Three hens in a frosty hillside garden in the south of France. Vineyards in the distance. At sunrise.
