Sleeping Like A Baby
Yesterday afternoon our good pal Mr. A was out napping on a small island in the marsh pond. I know he would have preferred that there was more sun and less wind, but you have to admit, this big guy knows how make the best of any situation and manages to get quite comfortable!

They always look so innocent when they’re sleeping.
Exactly!
That is one peaceful chap!
I think he was the only one out there that knew what he was doing. Everyone else (the people) yesterday were all scrambling around in a rush, but not this big guy.
Phil I’ve been meaning to comment and say that I very much hope that you are feeling better now. It’s just rotten being ill and I’m very impressed that you’ve managed to keep photographing! Beautiful shots as always.
Thanks very much Lucy, I’m at maybe 70% right now, I have a ways to go to be back in top shape but I’m trying to keep at it.
I really appreciate your kind words and glad you enjoy the photos.
He must have had a good snack to sleep with a smile on his face.
He looks like me after a nice steak dinner and a few beers.
Glad to hear you are getting better. Love the grin on Mr. A.
He must be having a happy dream! Thanks Victor!
I don’t want to take the baby in my arm 😉
He looks like so quiet and take good time 🙂
Enjoy your week end Phil
He is quiet and happy. It is best to let him lay there and enjoy his nap. 🙂
Finché dormono sono pacifici, hanno un aspetto sereno…. meglio fare silenzio e non svegliarlo 🙂
Ciao, Pat
Sì, questo è l’idea migliore, basta lasciarlo dormire tranquillamente. 🙂
He looks completely “flat” – about as flat as he can get anyway. Look at those forearms! 🙂 He’s getting the most of what he can out of this! Beautiful shot, with the more delicate grass decor as a mini-screen.
My favorite part is that hefty left, front leg folded back like a dog might do while sleeping.
I was in the area for over an hour and he barely moved the entire time. This guy knows how to relax.
Sooooo cute!! 😀
Oh he’s plenty cute alright! 🙂
Such a tough life, but someone’s gotta do it! 🙄
Please continue improving. Life’s not much fun when you’re not firing on all cylinders.
He does have a pretty good life, and being at the top of the food chain helps as well!
I’m not feeling too great really, but trying to hang in. Thanks
Oh my goodness…thankfully I have never seen one here in Montreal. Great capture! Happy Easter.
Oh you should consider getting one! They are tons of fun at parties and your neighbors will love you! 🙂
Oh he looks dead to the world have a pleasant dream. I wonder if they do smile inside.
I’m betting these big guys do dream, about what I don’t know, but he sure looks content.
Great photo Phil, happy Easter.
Thank you Jan, and Happy Easter to you as well!
Awesome photo!
Happy Easter to you!
Thanks Hans, Happy Easter!
Such a cool capture! Happy Easter, Phil!
Glad you like it Amy, Happy Easter!
Aawwwwww, with the biggest grin no less, on his adorable, tranquil face! (Don’t you just want to pinch those cheeks?! – ikkk) Wonder what he’s dreaming about. This is precisely the nap we need from a tremendously busy but glorious Easter Weekend with all the events and celebrations. Thank you Phil and Mr. Alli for the reminder. 😀
I bet these big guys do dream, not sure about what, but this one definitely knows how to relax and take things easy.
We all should be able to sleep so well right?!? 🙂
I would like to give him a little scritch between the ears (if I could find them) but probably best to just let him sleep.
And such a sweet baby…, smiling innocently in his sleep 🙂
Great photo moment, again:)
I couldn’t have imagined how lovely it could be while he is sleeping 🙂
He probably had a big meal and is sleeping it off.
