One of the downsides to becoming a famous political leader  is that you get to be mocked. The internet is awash with  fun images of  politicians. I say "fun" but many of those images are quite bitter. Some American visitors to this blog refuse to refer to the current Republican candidate for the US presidency by his proper name and I am happy to go along with that. Below there are ten images and all you have to do is guess which creature is representing  the orange fellow. As usual, answers will be given in the Comments section. Good luck!

 2. Slimy - it munches through greenery - preferring tender, new plants

3. This creature can be a bit of a nuisance in North America often feeding from garbage cans and suchlike. The city with the largest population of these animals is believed to be Toronto.

fishdudez

 I got a text with an attachement. My nephew has started his own journey on Youtube. It’s called fishdudez. I’m so proud of him. I’m never met a more avid fisherman. He loves to makes his own fishing lures. A true country kid ironically who lives in South Florida. I love you Mason. 

He doesn’t know I’m sharing this, but I’m a proud aunt. I will gladly support him, and build him up. 

All lowercase fishdudez on Youtube. 

Love you kid.

Motion

 In the soppy slog

Sinking into

The deep green

Of grass

Not seen

In awhile

The valley

Has been productive

Nowhere near fun

As I celebrate

My birth soon

I’m realizing

What joy

Is found

In rebirth

One founded

On truth

That is being

Brought forward

Without blinders

Staring ahead

With hope

That change

Doesn’t have

To be

As scary

That necessary steps

Aren’t meant

To paralyze

But propel

Our feet

In motion
