Snowball, a blue-eyed, deaf pet recently relocated to the US from the NL patiently awaits the reappearance of a squirrel (outside). Thus far he, and his companion, BeBe are confined indoors; they will go outside once located in their new, permanent home.
Thanks for looking,
Bob

Beautiful capture Bob, Snowball truly lives up to the name! My favorite is the first shot.
Excellent framing and lighting all around.

Thank you Douglas, back after grandson's baseball and a breath of fresh air.
Stout - exactly the word. He's on reduced rations now in the US.
Per @douter's "stout" observation, I am reminded this morning of Snowball's coming to America.
Cats are main cabin goods for airlines and must remain/fit under the seat - so they say - subject to weight and size restrictions, to include the carrier.
During baggage check-in at Dusseldorf, two gate attendants were observed starting at Snowball and then back and forth at each other. It seems they could not decide how to process a suspiciously over-the-weight-limit cat - to board or not to board was the question. How would one handle disallowing a cat? The air was punctuated periodically by mutterings of "groß" to each other. Calling upon outside help for a decision, all chose to ignore the issue waving Snowball forward to board. Signing the form, they were happy so long as the airline was aware of a large cat onboard.
I love both of these images, but particularly the first one. It's so nicely framed and the bushes (?) outside look like clouds and give it a surreal appearance.
So, are you fostering?

Glad to see a post from you Bob!
Yes I too am very much enjoying #1!
Happy that "Snowball" has found a good home.
Super photography brother!

Thank you Dan,
Snowball's permanent residence will probably be available in several weeks, once they get moved in.

Nice images, and with a pretty great lens too.
Thank you,
I finally moved on from the 24-70/4, which was also a great lens. I'm very pleased with this and the extra reach.

Thank you Brent,
The bushes - boxwoods sorely neglected.
Several more weeks, family's shipping container cleared customs, until BeBe and Snowball relocate to their permanent residence.
