As with a lot of the 'old' comedic series, one could become quite invested in the characters as the episodes proceeded. Jack Klugman is probably best remembered for that series as well as Quincy MD.

#Birds #Sparrow Alan @alan678.bsky.social's #BirdOfTheDay Alt theme is #ColourfulCaptures. This drowsy Lincoln Sparrow is perched on a Green Alder branch in July. The dead leaves are a warm, deep brick colour in the sunshine.

A black bird, with the sun shining on it, is in mid step. It is standing on grey coloured ice, facing right. It's feathers are glossy in the sunlight and, individual flight feathers are defined.

A profile shot of a deep red coloured tiger lily. It's petals are curved back on themselves, the pistils extend far past the flower itself. The flower is backlit by the sun. Water droplets coat the blossom and sparkle in the background of blurred light lime green.

#Bloomscrolling #Lilium #FloralFriday One of my many (Lilium lancifolium) Tiger lilies, "Hiawatha" which blooms mid July.

An iris bloom speckled with water droplets on a sunny day. The upper petals are a light mauve, the lower petals a very deep purple on the outer edges. Close to the center are white streaks leading to the yellow pistils.

A pine tree strobili yet to open and release pollen, has a cluster of small cone shaped yellow buds tipped in orange. These are surrounded by bright green needles. In the background is a blurred imaged of a pine tree.

A solitary mushroom on the forest floor, surrounded by moss, dead leaves & twigs. The mushroom cap has inverted to form a shallow cup and exposing the gills underneath. It is an ochre colour with the top of the cap a darker brown.
