Catch Me If You Can

These are my attempts at taking Francis' picture. For a pretty young lad, he is quite camera shy.


When all else fails, stare at a wall and pretend that The Human is not there. Francis is not the first pig to try this little trick. Maybe its not me, though. Perhaps walls really are that fascinating. Do they actually talk, Francis?!? Do they?!?

Some pigs would suffer through a picture rather than allow their poop to be photographed. Okay, I don't know of any pigs who are fussy about poop, but Ooolah, the kit-ten, is certainly fussy enough about it. She despises anyone even walking past her litter box when she is...I shan't say "pooping," rather catching up on the latest magazines. Anyway, she doesn't like her reading to be seen by others.

As for Francis, he's perfectly content to be neither seen nor heard. His rump as he runs away, may be the most common photograph ever taken of him. He's not in this life for the glory.
