The Disappearing Grain (p) (B/W)

It took him months, but, Shirklock finally solved the nagging case of the disappearing grain. Actually, it was pure luck! Wazon asked if Shirklock had noticed the band-tailed pigeons grazing for the past three months in the front yard? "By jove, Wazon! That's it! Get my violin!"

Free At Last (t)

After years of stealing the spirit of clouds with his various optical devices, Samuel Lightgatherer, was sentence to life under a canopy of rapidly growing trees. Eventually, Samuel would never see another cloud at which point his custodians figured all cloud spirits would at last be free to roam undisturbed!

Blowin' In The Wind (p)

The Grass Clan love to hang out at the lake. They spend their days frolicking in the water playing "Catch A Bug" and "Spot Toxic Algae". Great family fun.

Location Is Everything (t) (B/W)

Earlier in the day, millions of innocent snowflakes were slaughtered when they landed in the lake instead of on land. The anguished screams were horrible!

Ready To Sing (p)

Randy has been on the mend for a couple of months after having birdseed get caught in this throat. He still maintains the seed must have been blown on his nuts from a nearby feeder. That, or, Jax the Jay has been messing with Randy again!

Pinhole (t)

Julia finally figured out why she was having trouble sleeping. The canvas of her tent had numerous pinholes allowing light in. Must be moths!

Constant Change (t) (p)

Alice noticed that although the landscape rarely changed, weather seemed to make things look different at any given moment. Of course, smoking a lot of pot changed things also!

Splish Splash (t)

Teddy the Trout wears himself out striking at raindrops. He hasn't learned the difference between water and insects hitting the lake surface. But, the problem kind of runs in his family. Both grandpa and dad couldn't distinguish between live and tied insects. They are now gone and Teddy is on his own.
