It’s obviously not on the tiny island. It’s on the shore, a boat ride away.

The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

In the garden.

It was an exceptionally dry summer, difficult to grow stuff.

I gorged on them right then and there. Sweet stuff :D

Catch of the day!

For those wondering, my grandfather is a licensed net fisher.

Campfire site and lake

I have the fondest memories of this campfire site.
We, the islander kids, would come here and have our campfire time, burning bread. That’s right, not toasting, burning. We called bread burned to perfect blackness “galoshes” and ate it with particular satisfaction :P

Not our island, but clearly the most cramped island I have yet seen

Mathilda

She’s very natural in that environment. Excellent climber.
Image

Also terribly intelligent. It took her a while to acknowledge me as “one of her own” – but not too long. I’ve never met her before, but I soon had conversations with this cat. I swear, she knows exactly what you say to her.
Image

A strange find in the bushes…
Image

Very creepy:
