Winter in Orlando has been unusually cool so far, except for the past few days. The temperatures are more in line with what you’d expect for central Florida in February, with lows in the upper 40s at night and highs in the low 70s during the day. And when it gets that comfortable the clowder likes come out to rest all over the furniture on the lanai. Today turned out to be almost a perfect day for exploring the coming of the new year.
Joan and Danï
Once again I’ve turned to the Olympus OM1.2 and the M.Zuiko 12-40mm/2.8 PRO. It’s a powerful, quick photographic combination.
I can’t believe the first six months of 2023 have already gone by. Here we are the first day of July. The cats, of course, pay no mind to the passage of time. Everything and every day is always new to them.
In the summer they like to congregate around one corner of the lanai to look at … something. Whatever it is, it has their complete attention. I was able to walk up with a camera and take this photo of four of the six. They are, from left to right, Danï, Zoë, Joan, and Beau (who appears to be their leader). Joan is hidden by Beau, lying next to her kitten Zoë. It’s always fun to see how the cats congregate, with the two dilute Torties hanging together and the four Gingers in a group by themselves. They when it’s time to be fed, they break up three and three, with the three “kittens” eating together and the three “adults” eating together in a different area. Or else Danï and Zoë will sleep together, Joan and Beau sleep together, while Nicholas and Luke are off independent. And when they decide to play, they’re all mixed in and playing hard.
