Ongoing update of Barcelona album.

We had wondered what IHS on all these stones meant. So yesterday I asked the Asshat Family, and they told me. =)

It is a Christogram ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christogram )!

The short version is that it’s the first three letters of Jesus’s name in Greek (iota eta sigma).

I’d always guessed it to mean “in His service”, but assumed I was wrong.

This little bird was in a bush, and I pointed at him. He flew towards my hand, and we wondered if he was somewhat tame to land on people’s hands for food. Turns out he was, but we had no birdy foods.
Eventually he got bored of my hand so Mike had a go.
Mike is Lord of the Pigeons, so they kept trying to land on him instead. : )

Anyway, a little sequence.

Nope, I didn’t zoom in, a squirrel was that close to me ‘n’ my camera.

Just like this in fact..

Explore shiny ball.
