This week’s Sunday Stills challenge theme is ‘Under the Trees.’ See more responses here. Here are a couple of photos for this theme. They’re both under the trees and they’re both barbecue-related when you think about it.
The top one shows people sharing a barbecue meal under the trees at Spencer Beach Park. If this post featured ‘Smellovision’ you’d know it was a barbecue without me writing anything at all.
The bottom photo shows the six little pigs that have been daily visitors to the yard this past couple of weeks. They come for fallen mangoes, scampering out from the cane grass and racing around below the mango tree searching for fallen treasures. There are often one or two on the ground and the lucky ones bolt back into cover with their prizes. Their antics are a continuing source of entertainment. Mind you, it’s not all fun and games. There used to be seven little pigs!

Always better to find shade and eat under a tree!

I like this park a lot. It’s such a welcoming type of place, great for families, but with something for everyone.

Haha, looks like 7 wasn’t someone’s lucky number. You had me hooked at smellovision.

I can get hungry just driving past a barbecue. It’s an occupational hazard here.

Yep, I was just going to comment on what Becky said…hope that is not the BBQ smell wafting from under the trees, LOL! A great shot of the family picnic and how trees provide the best backdrop, Graham. Cute piggies, may they have the wisdom to run away from hungry predators!

The pigs do learn to run early on. One easy way to drive them from the yard is to start barking like a dog. They take off like rockets!

Thanks Jacquie. They’re very cute when they’re little, less so when they’re large and tearing up the yard.

There’s a fair chance one or two will get cooked one way or the other.
