Misty and Dash say it's that time again for Saturday's Critters.
Welcome to another
and a jaunt about town and a few photos from our great Minnesota State Fair. I hope you enjoy, especially any conversations you might have with any pigeon, or other bird you might possibly meet along the way. I'm also posting to City Daily Photo.
Of course, all Dragons know how to play chess.
Man, or bird? Or both?
Did you know that books on pigeons are quite popular?

another great pigeon book to check out.

For the love of birds, and cows of course.
One of my favorite critters at the fair!
Egg Coffee and Roasted Corn on the Cob my two top favorites.

Hello,
The state fair sounds like a fun time. Love your sweet furbabies, Misty, Dash and Artemis are all adorable. The artsy critters are cool looking too. I really like the Stained glass herons, it is beautiful. Wonderful post, quotes and photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a happy weekend! PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
Getting to go to the state fair is special! I always loved going in NC. Love your photos and quotes! Lots of interesting things to see today!
As always thanks for the smiles, the beauty, the whimsy.
I am pretty certain that dragons invented chess.
Those dogs are sweeties.
I always enjoy the trips your posts take us on, Karen. Love that first plaque with the bunny & the bird.
Thanks for hosting Saturday’s Critters and your comment here too! Our day began on a scary looking rain storm but finally the sun came to life, I hope your day is gorgeous too! I actually snapped a few photos of a live heron today, bonus!
Thank you, and I bet NC has a wonderful fair too! Seems to be the thing for folks to attend!
I believe they did too, as dragons are extremely wise and resourceful 😉
That bunny on the bird is gorgeous, so filled with whimsy 😉
I love your animals and your whole attitude!

That's everyday!
Our county fair just closed. I think. But it's nothing like yours. That is fun! You animal photos are awesome. BTW: I've read two pigeon books and have another on my to-read list. I have no idea why! But mostly it is because of the extinct passenger pigeons. Great information.
My goodness, some amazing pictures! I found the bird man the creepiest, and the big ox the funniest. I'd love to go to a state fair, I am not sure we have them here, although we have something called COunty fairs which sound slightly similar.
