It has been a mild winter so far -- mild and dry. There were two promising early storms in December, but since then pretty much nothing. As for the mild, it's been warm enough many (imported) temperate deciduous trees only just turned and dropped during the past two week, and now our bougainvillea is blooming deep magenta. In late January.

Yup!

Or possibly purred seductively, rubbed through with its chin, and ended up with butt in his face.
