FARABUTO IN THE PUDDLE for The Reflection Hunters Contest ~ Round 131

in #hive-179017last year

It was raining last night. I wasn't aware of that because my sleep was deep, so the large puddle in the front yard was quite a surprise.

(Enlargeable)

Around 9 AM, when I was ready to go buy some groceries, one of my cats came to the puddle, giving me the opportunity to create this post.

(Enlargeable)

The pudlle was a great and pretty large reflective surface and Farabuto, that's the name of the cat, was providing a changing, moving reflection.

Farabuto likes the water very much. I mean, he probably doesn't like any kind of deep water, but he really enjoys rambling and playing in shallow puddles like this one. In this photograph, Farabuto is collecting the water with his paw, while in the following GIF ...

... he is drinking, or more precisely licking that water.

Here I rotated the pictures to put the emphasis on the reflections. I will probably choose one of these two photographs to be the contest entry.

In this set of four consecutive shots, Farabuto is again collecting and drinking the water using his versatile paw.

In this enlargeable photograph, Farabuto has caught a leaf fallen from the Celtis australis tree that grows near the gate of my yard.

Here the cat is doing the same but the focus is on the reflection.

Here you can take a look at the enlargeable GIF that shows that scene in motion.

After ten to fifteen minutes of playing in the puddle ...

... Farabuto's fur was completely soaked in some places.

AND THAT'S IT. AS ALWAYS HERE ON HIVE, THE GIFs AND PHOTOGRAPHS ARE MY WORK - THE END.

I love cats and the entry is best and amazing. This cat looks so beautiful. How long do cats play in the water and look at their reflection.

Thats not normal to see a cat enjoying water ! Nice pics !

True. It's an unusual scene. 😄 Farabuto is the only one of my cats that loves the water that much.

The cat knows how to be a good model while you take the shots. The leaf on his paw is particularly amusing, cats are recalling curious creatures. The puddle created a clear and transparent reflection.

The cat looking innocent

It's amazing how you are able to capture each moment while Farabuto was enjoyng his time in the waters.

You got lovely shots and the reflections are lovely too

What a beautiful pet, dear friend @borjan, how brave Farabuto is since cats generally don't like water.
Beautiful shots, I appreciate you sharing these beautiful shots.

Thank you. 🙂 Have a great weekend.

The cat isn't scared of the water!

That's such a cool reflection. Did Farabuto pose remain still for that first pic? ..or did you have to be super quick? I see you mention that he was providing a moving reflection haha. Keep well mate and thanks for sharing.

He was still for a minute or two. Getting that photograph was easy.

Awwww... Lovely "Farabuto"!!!! And great reflections shots!

Yes... "Life is a cat"!!!

We have the same situation outside! It was raining hole night.

Those are lovely reflection on stagnant water.
What is in his mouth? Fish or leave?

Just a leaf. 🙂 It looks a lot like a small fish, though.
