This hot and humid day, Bernadette, Kathy and I toured Bed & Breakfasts near Orono, Ontario. Many in the area had open house...each had a claim to fame. The first place we stopped was a B&B next to CatWorld, where we met this young wolf in the front yard. He had been raised in captivity from a baby and shared his large fenced yard with a young tiger. The owner brings the two to schools and other places in the area. This wolf was not that easy to take a picture of, he kept pacing and moving. Not your regular dog on a hot day. Isn't he beautiful?
I was so busy trying to get a photo of the wolf, I missed a shot of the tiger stretching up on two legs at the fence, showing interest in Bernadette. Perhaps he thought she looked tasty. I hoped he would do it again--she did not. It was quite hot and he decided instead to find some shade under a picnic table. I asked the owner/trainer if the tiger ever tried to jump the fence and he told me the tiger was young and wouldn't do that. It isn't normal for tigers and wolves to get along but these two have been raised together.
There was also the ugliest duck I have ever seen. She was brooding, sitting on her eggs at the side of the house. Perhaps I shouldn't say she is ugly...but really, what do you think? Bernadette told me what kind of duck she is but I forget...never heard of it.
