This week in SSC:

"Something interesting from my street"

I live way out in the woods and the lane I live on is really just a long driveway that ends at my house (see PIP.)

I walked down it a couple of times but really couldn't find anything too interesting (and I didn't think I should post a photo of my neighbor's house. :)) So... I took a photo of a tadpole that is in our pond since the lane goes right by it. I thought he was pretty interesting. Check out his little tail!

..and for Sight and Sound:

Tower of Power from their album "Bump City" (1972)

You're Still a Young Man

HelenaPF, Jean-louis Thiaudiere, Smiley Derleth, buonacoppi and 23 other people have particularly liked this photo

A fantastic find and photo! It must be wonderful living out in the woods instead of hearing traffic noise day and night.

It's great but it's not noise-free. It seems as soon as I sit on the deck to relax outside the neighbor starts up some kind of power tool lol. :)) But mostly it's very nice and private here.

Nice one, Karen. Don't often see them at this stage.

Karen's Place club has replied to Gillian Everett club
That's so true. I was so surprised he still had his tail when the rest of him was so developed. I read that they live off the food stored in their tail. So cool!

Thanks, Gillian.

Great - a frog on your "street". Actually as a city dweller it seems unfeasible to imagine seeing a frog when stepping out on the street (see my street picture).

Karen's Place club has replied to Ruebenkraut club
I imagine that on your busy street he wouldn't last very long. :(

Danke, Henning.

Oh I love this, Karen! It is the kind of sight I was hoping to capture on my street! We have resident frogs in our drain sewers, but they hop away every time you get close!

Karen's Place club has replied to Valfal
Thanks, Val. I was surprised to realize that my "street" was so uninteresting. Luckily the little frog/tadpole (frogpole?) helped me out. :)

A super shot, Karen. Great focus! A clever musical match :-) This is a great track. Love it :-) I was going to say this is a completely new music to me. But, reading Wikipedia I see that Tower of Power's horn section has appeared on a number of other artists' recordings including Otis Redding, Aaron Neville, Bonnie Raitt, Elton John, Huey Lewis. It can't, therefore, be totally 'new' music to me :-)))

Thank you for posting to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music
