Life of the Piggles
It was a tough decision but I finally chosed Piggles, (thank Felicity) and in Latin Volocer-porcus, (thanks Maura)
And now for a rare insight in the life of the Piggles. It's important for Piggles to feel a strong bond when mating, they choose partners for life.
When waiting pups, the males colors darkens and he gets more aggressive.
The Female feeds the pups for the first two month
The First flying lessons are difficult
But they soon take up their parents great aviation skills
Inspired by the pigs more animals follow suit.
The Duck-Horse
The Flying cow
The Cat and the mouse, putting a thrill on the chase
And the mighty Meagle
The Parrot
But rest assure I won't be pestering you about names on them, have a happy computer free weekend now, and thanks for all the great suggestions of name.

ReplyDeletein spanish we have an expression: "el dia que los chanchos vuelen" ...did you know it? "the day when the pigs fly". The expression means "it never gonna happen"
I like "Piggles"!
"The flying lesson" is beautiful.

Your "watercolours skill" is great.
Wait a moment! Whoa! I've just seen you linked me in your side bar!
