PhotoHunt Theme: Water

The theme this week is "water" and we've had too much water here in the midwest. So I am not going to show any of my flood pictures but here's a nice picture of a baby cow by his or her little pond out the road from where I live.
I grew up in California and my parents still live there. Last year I took a picture of a pelican sitting out on the wharf surrounded by lots of water.
My parents have a pool and this cat lives next door to them. His name is Orion and he loves to visit my parents. They give him treats and he likes drinking the water from their pool.
He doesn't just lean over and drink though.
He scoops up the water with his paw! And here's a picture of his face after he had his fill of water!
As always, you can find more Photohunters here!

Cute little cow and his pond! The pelican looks huge! Lucky Cosmo for having your parents as neighbors, he doesn't mind the chlorine in the pool.

Happy Weekend!

That's the same way my cat drinks, even out of his bowl. I've often wondered if it was because he was a stray as a baby and had to do that to get water out in the wild world.

For my contribution, I chose water reflections around my floating cabin in Coastal BC. I invite you to come see. -- Margy

I love your photos!

One of my cats paws his water too. I have to keep their water bowl in the shower because it was warping the floor!

We've been getting too much water too. Some of it's rain, some snow-melt. I've never seen the river so high.

Pelicans always look so dissaproving :)
