Claus stands along in his green kingdom. Nobody is there to comfort him when he’s sad. No one to return his chirps. But, he doesn’t care. He’s fine with himself. He thinks.
On top of old smokey.
All smiles.
Contemplating life.

Amazing.
Thanks Lenore.
love it.
Thanks!!
What is this Claus is sitting on? Looks like some kind of brain to me … yeah, I’m way too tired today to look at such pictures in a way they might make sense to me, but I like Clause and his smile. Awesome shot 🙂
But seriously, what is it he’s sitting on? Some kind of flower?
Hanni, it’s a hedge ball… They do look like alien brains. 🙂
Is the plant a hedge ball? Such an interesting texture. I thought at first it was a cauliflower, but that didn’t make sense. Would love to know what the crinkly plant is.
It is most definitely a hedge ball.
Correct.
Hedge ball! 🙂 Thanks Ellen.
Yes they look like alien brains.
Poor Claus. Hope he finds a friend soon. Beautiful, interesting pictures and cute story.
Thanks Donna.
Love it. I love hearing the insects hum and chirp!
Thanks!
The surface on which “Claus” is crawling is a “hedge apple” or “hedge ball” fruit from the Osage Orange tree.
Yes!
WTTW (word-to-the-wise) don’t ever park under a hedge apple tree.
What a very cute bunch of pics of Claus! He looks like he should be a Disney character!!
Thanks Lisa. 🙂 That’s his dream!
I love clause! He is so adorable!
He’s a keeper. 😉
Yes he is indeed! 🙂
This is a great photo. It looks as though Claus is standing on a green brain–a Martian’s brain! “Mars Attacks!”
When I was born, we lived in a farmhouse with an Osage orange tree in the yard. My older brothers and I used to throw the fruits at one another. We were a cruel bunch of savages . . .
It sounds like it! 😉 Thanks.
Jiminy Cricket on top of a brain – I love it!
he’s fine with himself, cause he always has a handy violin to play when he’s bored!!! love these shots!!! so good, you can see his expressions! 🙂
Claus has a lot to contemplate 🙂
is he sitting on hulk’s brain 😛
Reminds me a bit of Yertle the Turtle (are you old enough to remember that story :-))
Great close ups! How did you keep from scaring him away? I also liked your opening lines. Very poetic.
Plus I love that the grasshopper is called “Claus.”
Claus! My deepest honor!
