So long Capek!

Hey guys! Today I'm gonna tell you something about Capek, my male goat.

Capek was very small when he came to us. He was a cute brownish-black goat. Of course, our female goat Balbis didn't want him to be in the same barn as her! She knew it wasn't her child, so she kept on butting him, and as a small goat would do, he cried. So when we returned, Capek was still crying and Balbis butting him.

Days after that one, Balbis got so used to Capek that when he was gone, like when he wasn't in her sight she would cry like: first: maaaaa! next: maaaaa! then: maaaaa! last: maaaaaaaa!

First she would butt him, and then want him to be near! Funny goat! After all, she cries about every thing!

When Capek was big enough, and started butting people, we slaughtered him. It was so sad, but the meat was yummy!

But we don't miss him much. We've got plenty more animals!

As soon as I can, I'll write a new post! So see ya for now!

D for dog!

Hmmm, lets see... D... for dog... All right! A post about dogs! Here we go!

Dogs are one of the most intelligent animals of the planet. You can train them to do many things like: to obey simple commands, bring your paper or slippers. Of course there is much much more things to train them: (harder stuff) to retrieve hunted animals, to be a guide for blind (they train Labs for that), to be sheepdogs, and in cold countries - to pull sleighs.

These animals are very close friends of people. They will do anything for his/her master/mistress. I have a dog myself and she is very faithful. When I go somewhere (for example: to the shop, or to meet my friend) she just lies near the gate and waits, waits... until I come back. She is very happy then (as, I suppose every dog would if their master/mistress came back home).

A dogs fur colour ranges from black to white and also goldish and brown. So dogs are, lets say, different coloured.

Well, I think I have told you a little too much... Time to do something else! See you next time!

Meow!!!!

Oh no! That's a cat! Quickly read the post!

Cats are kept as pets in the house, but also can catch mice.

Cats need to earn for their living! (As some people say) Catch mice!

For example, what do wild cats eat? Mice and small mammals, of course! That's why cats are supposed to catch mice.

In Greece the climate is hot, so cats multiply quickly. You can see minimum one cat on each street (or two).

Cats are weird little animals. For example:

Some cats kill mice and bring them to the owner’s door and leave them there. Some eat the mice. Some are smart, others not. Queerest: Male cats cross the road minding "roaring monsters (cars) with two-legged (people) in their stomachs" and females don't mind, they just cross the road. And when cats mate, the female has children and the male goes off never to be seen. Why?

No more info, no more cats! Bye!

Earthquake?

A couple of weeks ago, I was in Greece for a holiday. So the whole story goes like this:

I was lying on the bed, and reading a book. Suddenly, the floor, the ceiling and the lamp shook! My dad was near the window and he looked out in the very moment the earthquake began. The people outside did not even FEEL the earthquake (because it was a little one). Weird!

The whole earthquake didn't last long. It lasted only not more than 5-10 seconds.

'In Greece and Cyprus there are a lot of earthquakes' my mum tells me, 'and the people have gotten used to them and the houses have quake protectors.'

I wonder... do fishes feel earthquakes? If anyone finds the answer let me know!

See ya! And keep reading my posts on All My Bits And Pieces!

The best country is...

...Australia! Of course, for me! For you it might be: Brazil, America, Africa, U.S, U.K, Asia, Europe...

Talking about Australia, lets start with the fauna.

Kangaroos - wild animals, although they can be tamed and fed from human hand and that they are cute, but in the wild they can be aggressive. Kangaroos can be grey, brown, red...

Dingo - a close cousin of the dog, but does not bark. If you want to have a dingo, remember to cross it with a dog first, because that is the only dingo you can have around the house. Also tamed easily.

Koala - munch, munch! Crunch, crunch! A koala eating eucalyptus leaves. Usually very fussy, only to eat special types of eucalyptus. These gentle, lazy animals sleep more than they move!

Australians are proud of their country. We like to sing a song: We share our dreams, and sing with one voice, I am, you are, we are Australian...

Hey there, funny fish!

Have you ever seen a funny fish? Now I will show you one.

We are staying by the seaside and I've seen a lot of fish lately. Long, short, silver coloured, brown coloured, small... whatever. But I've never seen a funny fish in the sea. Maybe because they aren't real. Or maybe they are?!

Funny fish are supposed to be funny and that's that! A funny fish that is not funny isn't a funny fish, right? So there!

The pictures shows a funny fish and a not funny fish. Say, funny, not funny! That's what the fish are.

Some people think fishes are stupid, but I'm not sure that's true. Fact, they swim all day, and do nothing else, but that's how The Lord made them!

If you ever see a fish that's acting funny, let me know!

My animals!

Hi guys! Today we're going to talk about my animals! I live on a small farm and I have lots of animals. So hop into the world of my animals today!

I have five ducks, to tell you to start off. They are nearly always hungry! They quack; Qua, qua, qua really loudly and I have to give them food or they will not finish their concert.

A mallard duck has a bluish-greenish-purplish rectangle (a mirror) on its left wing. When the sun's shining, the mirror is bright and flashy. Next one, a duck-goose is pure white with a black spot on its head. Of course the mallard with the mirror is a male, while the other one is a female. The other white ducks do not have as white feathers as the duck-goose, but they are sort of whitish.

They are really cheerful!

If you have a chance to see some ducks, look out for mine!

Also coming... My animals, part two!

Final; Netherlands vs Spain

Nice! Four days before there was a final; Netherlands vs Spain. To tell you the truth, I think the game Germany vs Uruguay was more exiting. Much more attraction. Don't you think so? Actually, the game was fine, but not worse than the game for third place.

Well, I was like "Wow!" when Spain won. But, on the other hand, I think it was way too rough. When someone kicked the other teams player in the face, I said -I'm going to sleep. I think about 5-8 players in every team got a yellow card.

Spain, had a real victory that day, not looking at the teams gotten yellow cards...
But still, it's sort of like... when the team you want to win wins, you are so happy about it. Soccer kind of rocks in it's own way.

I don't think Spain has the best team in the world, but that was the team I was going for. I like soccer, maybe there are people that don't like it... Anyway, see you, when the Europe Cup comes in two years maybe we will have more interesting finals to write about.

Lizards galore!

Hey, lizard fans! Ready to get some lizard info? Then read on!

Lizards are small, clever little creatures. They are quick and like to hide. I have caught one today and I saw it closer. It does give you some info, the look. Here is the look of it: it is about 5cm long (the most seen ones), the paws are small, and the interesting thing is, that the front paws have shorter claws and the back longer, its scales are smooth, and you nearly don't see then at all, whereas the colour is usually brown with some spots.

A rare occasion is a lizard with a orange belly. It is normally quicker than the other, common lizards and if you try to catch it, it can try to bite. So it's better to leave such lizards alone, in peace.

Bye, lizard fans, hope you liked the post!

Germany vs Uruguay

Guys! Two days before, there was a game Germany vs Uruguay! Did you watch it? Super game! So much action, they were fighting like lions! Just like it was a game for life and death! Oh, man! Best game I have seen in my life!

Plus, the two best German players, Miroslav Klose and Lukas Podolski were sitting on the bench! I think that Germany would have won 4-0 if they were in. Rather sad that they got two yellow cards in the last two games.

It is a wonder that Germany won 3-2 with Uruguay ... I thought that if Klose and Podolski were not in the game, that they would lose completely! I was wrong! Germany is pretty good without Klose and Podolski!

See you! Enjoy the following posts!
