Thanks for my first laugh of the day, Michelle! As a bonus to Verizon, he doesn't even need to be outfitted with those spiked boots to climb the poles. :) Your power of observation never wanes - a super find, great subtle tones and wonderful chuckle-of-a-shot! #1539297

It rather makes me worried for him somehow, up there with all the wires, you know? Had an eagle in the area that ran into electrical wires and zapped himself. Got months of recovery ahead. #10798793

Before I opened the image to it's larger size I thought he was in a nest!! :D

Your title is so cute! If he is not careful up there his name might go from Zippy to Zappy!!!

Your technical's here are super, Michelle.

HA, HA, HA!!! Haven't been to your gallery in such a long time, Michelle, and this one had me laughing out loud! It is so perfect and the title is priceless! It is funny except that where I live, the squirrels are always chewing on the lines and bringing down phones and our internet, which is definitely NOT funny! #10810633
