Thursday Throwdown

The valerian  doughnut vulture* provided much entertainment, and for some reason we got extra treats and mucnhies. Jaava decided not to show how she indulged and turned her back to the camera.

Unka Sampo had no such shame - he went for the bite and inhale style.

 Seppo went nuts - bunny kicks, biteys, hugs - he was rolling around all over the birdie. And he was nekkid. Ha!

* munkkikorppikotka is the Finnish name for this bird; korppikotka is vulture and munkki is monk, or doughnut. Why there should be the same word for monk and doughnut is beyond me right now. Humans, eh ?

Valerian Wednesday

Phew, there is so much to enjoy here. I got some Big Cat stuff yesterday. Äiti bought us a new toy (munkkikorpikota - a very rare and special birdy, called a doughnut vulture). Before we got it, she dipped it in the drug tank so it marinated well. Now of course the mighty mancats wanmted a sniff - Great Unka Jura and Pekka kept Mesi away.

Pekka wanted to make it clear that Jura should stand back so he, Pekka, could have first dibs.

But lookie here -I, Papu, sneak underneath and get the first inhale.

Now, to be honest, I was not so impressed. maybe my little nostrils are currently immune and it is all too grown up - a bit like human children not liking broccoli. Anyway, I'll show some more photos soon of how the others enjoyed the valerian. Bye for now !
