Welcome to week 208 of the Tuesday Photo Challenge!
First, a quick update. Thank you all for the wonderful wishes and sympathy that you shared; I very much appreciate it. At this point, I’ve been in the Netherlands just over a week and things are beginning to settle into a routine again, as I’m balancing working with helping out with all that needs to be wrapped up for my mom’s estate. I never realized how much time can be involved in all this! I’ll get back into a rhythm and will wrap up the missing round ups over the next 2 days.
In getting back to a Tuesday Photo Challenge, I’m taking a bit of a short-cut in that I’m recycling a theme from week 40: Animals! The reason for this is that during this unusual time, I find that animals are a great source of comfort and normalcy for many of us, so I thought it might be good to celebrate them. For this challenge, I look forward to your photos, stories and posts about the animals around us.
I’ll be very much enjoying your shared experiences with animals!!
Up close and all at ease…
This is one of my sister’s horses, who have a fairly leisurely lifestyle and enjoy their people time!
The full rules of this challenge are in TPC Guidelines, but here’s the tl;dr:
- Write a post with an image for this week’s topic
- Please tag your post with fpj-photo-challenge (if you’re not sure about how tags work, please check out this WordPress article about tagging posts)
- Create a pingback link to this post, so that I can create a post showing all of the submissions over the week (note: pingbacks may not appear immediately, as my site is set up to require approval for linking to it; helps against previous bad experiences with spamming)
- Have fun creating something new (or sharing something old)!!
Stay safe and enjoy your time with the animals!
Have been thinking of you Frank at this sad time.
Here’s my effort this weeks (dogs again)

Sending you thoughts and sympathy at this time Frank.
Hi Frank, you’ve been on my mind. I’m sending good vibes your way … especially these days. …
I don’t look at others’ posts before I do mine (not even yours …) so imagine how fun to see we both went with the equine! 🙂

Hang in there

You and your family are in our thoughts Frank and it’s a blessing how much comfort animals can bring us. I’m linking a post I did yesterday as it features one of our cats (as well as the whippets): https://whippetwisdom.com/2020/04/20/earthrise-rolling-haiku-collaboration-2020/
Thank you very much, Xenia. Lovely post and great to see your cat!
Thank you Frank!
You may choose: ducks or a baby goat:) Love the horse. So peaceful!

One is lucky to own a piece of land or a garden however small to enjoy birds and pets playing there.

I love your horse photo. I have always loved horses, and had a pony as a child, but I was so young I don’t remember him. His name was Dusty 😊🐴
A great horse close-up.

Please accept my deepest sympathies. Thanks for continuing you blog work in these times. I hope you find some distraction in photos. Here are mine from Etosha, Namibia. https://schlinkshots.photo.blog/2020/04/22/tuesday-photo-challenge-animals/
I love your photo Frank. And I’ll be joining in too, later this week. It’s been far too long and I can’t resist your theme this week. Take care. 🙂
my condolences Frank. glad you could reach Netherlands in these crazy times.
here is my contribution: https://lessywannagohome.blogspot.com/2020/04/underwater-world.html
Even with the first wave of the epidemic winding down, I suppose things are very slow in the Netherlands now. Stay safe.
I didn’t want to post lions or tigers, rare monitor lizards or endangered species of monkeys. I thought I would post something simple, something wild but known to most of us. So, a sparrow: https://anotherglobaleater.wordpress.com/2020/04/21/afghan-sparrow/
Such a fun topic, I did a quick tribute to the horses near my house:https://wp.me/p2owKx-1Do
I like your sister’s horse! I do hope you are doing well.
Take care, Cheers, Amy
Beautiful horse, so peaceful.
Mine is a bit wiggly but harmless and maybe not everyone´s cup of tea. It keeps me sane in tne sence that I get to go outdoors in nature.
I hope you and your family are doing okay. This was a great prompt to repeat 🙂

I’m so sorry to read the news of your mom’s passing away Frank. My warmest condolences.

Frank, I hope everything is okay with you????? … there hasn’t been any smoke signal from you for a while now. A bit concerned, because of the situation we all are in just now. Please, stay safe.
Yes, I am also wondering if you are okay. These are tough times to say the least.
Hi Frank, Just sending thoughts, and hoping you are just having a break to recuperate from everything that has been happening in your life.
