Happy St. Andrew's Day

Happy St. Andrew's Day!
St. Andrew is the patron saint of Scotland, Greece and Russia.
When we were in Scotland last month, Thing One said, "I feel quite special, because there are St. Andrew's flags everywhere!"

Flamingos make a Flamingo


The clue about this amaing picture is in the title: Flamingos make a Flamingo. The picture was taken by wildlife photographer Robert Haas for (who else?) National Geographic. Divine intervention or just good luck? Who knows, who cares. It's a great picture. To read more about it, go to the Guardian story.
