As we bid a fond farewell to Christmas, WiLSoN believes the days ahead will bring more light and warmth.

The view out the front door, as many big wheels grind to  a halt at this time of every year.   

"Now that the Solstice has passed, the days will get longer," thought WiLSON to himself...

> How Many WiLSoNs? <

As the Winter Solstice approaches, the myth of the GIANT WiLSoN haunts us all, as we seek warmth and light. How many WiLSoNs do you see here?

> It's NoT FuNNY <

...when all you have to keep warm in is a ridiculous looking fake fur igloo-bed made for small girly dogs.  Or maybe it is a little funny.  At least WiLSON appears warm.

WiLSON will periodically don tribal paint, and take it upon himself to "administer justice" in the neighborhood. Despite his good looks, being WiLSoN is not always a pretty business.

> At PEaCE <

WiLSoN contemplates the moment at hand, and is at peace.  

> AuTuMN oF HiS CoNTeNT <

WILSoN senses a great change coming to the world at this time....

> ELeCTiON FaTiGUE <

WiLSoN has just about had it up to here, suffering from pre-election-anxiety syndrome (PEAS).  He says: "Wake me when it's over."

> ThE GooD LiFE <

WiLSON doesn't miss a trick when it comes to "the ladies."

> HEaD BuTT <

To help him relax, WiLSoN enjoys a gentle head-butt with this tiny hand-carved elephant from India. Then he (WiLSoN) goes about his business.

> DEaTH POSE # 641 <

WiLSoN thinks it's amusing to feign death after playing with a toxic kitty-ball from China.

> EXTReME CaMoUFLaGe <

Hiding in a bush, WiLSoN is pretty sure that no one can see him. If you squint really hard, you can almost make out his image.

> HiSToRiCaL ARTiFaCT <

Here's a very old photo of WiLSoN'S great-great ancestor, WiLLiAMS, sharing a posed moment with renowned astro-physicist of the day, Doctor, Engineer, Professor PJ StoneHenge, seen here as a youth, prior to his meteoric rise to fame.

A final view of what Summer has brought to WiLSoN'S backyard, before the cool winds of Autumn change the landscape...

WiLSON aNd FrieNDS GO ViDEO!

259 images of WiLSoN and friends in under 3 minutes!  A must-see.

> BuMBLe <

We were all surprised to see the world's largest BuMBLe Bee make a brief appearance the other day in WiLSoN's garden!

In preparation for an unexpected space flight, WiLSoN periodically practices floating in zero-gravity, as seen here.

DRaGONFLY oN LiLY

In WiLSoN's backyard, a dragonfly sits for a spell on top of a soon-to-flower lily.

> ThE FroGs of SuMMeR <

This handsome Grey Tree Frog (Hyla versicolor) inhabits WiLSoN's back porch and communicates with like-minded kin in WiLSoN's yard, especially as the Solstice approaches. Most amusing.

He's AWaKE...

...or is he? Coming out of a catnip-induced power nap, WiLSoN seems temporarily crazed and out-of-sorts.
