Pictures From the Official Angel & Jackie Webcam
One of the advantages of the Official Angel and Jackie Webcam, is that you can capture images from the camera. Every once in a while when I personally tune in to see what those two little rascals of mine are up to, I press the little camera icon above the video and save whatever is on the screen at that moment. What follows is a collection of some of those images.
First, let me show you the webcam itself. Well, it is actually the rear of the webcam, but still the webcam nonetheless...
Yup, there she is, folks. The Official Angel and Jackie Webcam perched atop my tripod, and pointed out towards my two favorite pups, (plus one, of course,) in the world. That's where all the action takes place, and what with the neighbors painting there house lately, there's been a LOT of action believe you me.
Anyway, lets move on...
It rained here the other day, and the crew just lazed around on the back patio and waited for daddy to come home. You can get a little perspective of how little Jackie is next to Mariah. Little or not, Jackie rules that backyard.
The neighbors have been painting their house, and so it's sheer bedlam whenever the dogs see any member of the painting crew. Papa is the worst of the bunch, and he gets himself so worked up that his normal bark quickly turns into short, high pitched yips and yelps, and then to a full on braying sound that would wake the dead. I honestly wish I had a way to set up a microphone here at work, and some speakers in the backyard at home so that I could calm him down, but at least these episodes don't last long, and none of the neighbors have yet to complain.
Jacqueline is a pretty tough little cookie. She keeps ALL of her siblings in line, and she isn't about to let some pesky painter just think he can look over the fence into our her backyard willy-nilly. You look over her fence, and you are in for a good talking to!
A very common sight around our house, Jackie and Angel dozing together on a pillow. Why can't people get along more like this?
Papa sort of blends in with his surroundings in this picture, so I labeled it "Camouflaged Papa" at Flickr.
Jacqueline typically likes the big pillow for herself, but if you look closely in the background you will see her snoozing away on a small scrap of carpet while Mariah sleeps on the large pillow. Jackie's benevolent that way.
I captured this frame because I liked how the sun was shining on Jackie that morning.
I pointed the camera a little higher so I could get more of the sun in the shot.
Another shot of Jackie and Mariah sharing a different large pillow that I had out back. Mariah made short work of that pillow one day, and while she didn't completely destroy it, I am still going to have a hell of a time sewing it back up.
And finally, one last shot of Papa sounding the alarm. Why those painters don't understand that they have no right being up high enough to be seen over the wall, Jackie, Angel, and Mariah will never know.
So there ya have it, another rousing bunch of pictures of Jackie, Angel, and their big sister Mariah. If you wold like to see this little pack of dogs in their natural environment, just click on the webcam icon over on the side bar to your right, or simply click here, and you will be taken straight to the camera itself.
Have a nice weekend, and we'll see ya when we see ya.
Oh, and don't forget to tear yourself away from the high drama you will be seeing on the webcam long enough to check out the other lively critters over at the Friday Ark at The Modulator. It's just animals, animals, animals.
