#thank you
A couple days ago I have reached 7000 followers! For me this is HUGE as I never even imagines a hundred people would read my stuff let alone this many!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart! ❤❤❤❤
Birds-a-twitter
Algy is always delighted to contemplate birds a-twitter, whether they are close to home or thousands of miles away, and he sends his fluffiest thanks to his friend Rob for drawing his attention to these Californian feathered friends
Snapdragons from above.
@adventuresofalgy I looked for something (flowery of course) the might go well with fluffy, as a belated birthday gift for Algy. I found soft. I found cushiony. I found billowy. I even found scary, which I will not share with Algy, though maybe later when he’s sleeping or visiting foreign lands. But nothing that brought to mind comfortably fluffy. Then I remembered Algy’s little green visitor, and thought perhaps this fire engine red (and school bus yellow) snapdragon might intrigue a dragon from Patadragonia.
My dear friend @photoblogdujour Algy is overwhelmed by your thoughtfulness - thank you so much❣️
Algy adores these gorgeous fiery colours and he is sure that these lovely snapdragonswill be exactly what is required to help help the little green dragon stay warm and dry in the wet west Highlands of Scotland.
Algy sends you an extra special fluffy hug and a warm glow from his little dragon friend
(p.s. Snapdragons are among the few flowers that can grow successfully in Algy’s assistants’ garden, and they are much loved here, but they certainly don’t flower at this time of year!)
On the occasion of his 10th tumblr birthday Algy has decided to support tumblr by paying the new subscription to go ad-free - even though he doesn’t care whether he sees advertisements or not…
And he hopes that many of his friends will do the same, simply as a way of giving something back to tumblr and helping this amazing platform and community to keep going:

Algy has just celebrated 10 years of his adventures on Tumblr.
That’s 10 years in which a strange fluffy bird based in a very remote and isolated area on the west coast of the Scottish Highlands has been able to share his adventures with people all around the world. Tumblr has enabled Algy and his assistant to make many, many new friends, and they have enjoyed the creativity and companionship of countless other tumblr uses FREE - gratis, and for nothing. The interaction with other creative tumblr users of all ages, genders, naitionalities and faiths has provided them with inspiration, support, comfort and joy.And for a long time Algy and his assistant have felt that getting all of this for free was not quite right, because it costs tumblr a lot of money to keep going, and it’s well known that tumblr struggles financially.
Tumblr has made several attempts at generating money in recent years, but the very special nature of tumblr’s users meant that these have not been successful.
Where else but tumblr could you offer people the opportunity to make money out of sharing their posts, for example, and find that the creative contributors to the platform were simply not interested and - despite the fact that it might take them many hours of work (or even days!) to create just one post - they just wanted to share for free. Crazy folk
And the tumblr folk who mainly wanted to look at other people’s posts, or participate in a community, didn’t want to pay for that privilege either. Of course they didn’t! That was never the tumblr way… Many tumblr users have no interest in money - or indeed, have no money
But now, at last, tumblr has offered a method for its users to help tumblr pay their way without engaging in monetizing their own work which - in the case of Algy’s adventures - they have been sharing for so long for free, and without paying to see other people’s posts.
So Algy and his assistant have gone for it, to pay something back to tumblr at last and to help keep it going. Crazy folk

And Algy hopes that there will be many other crazy folk out there who will be willing to help fund this weird and wonderful platform. Compared with all the other costs in everday life, it’s very little indeed to pay to ensure that tumblr can survive and continue to enhance all our lives.

@lovefromalgy Happy Birthday Algy!
Thank you so much @icardamome for this lovely birthday greeting, and for sending this handsome chaffinch to Algy’s 10th Tumblr birthday party Algy is sure that he will feel at home here, as there is quite a community of finches in this area.
Algy sends you lots of fluffy bird hugs xo
We have received such positive reception to our art in the last two days that it makes our hearts swell… Thank you all for your support.
Reblog and put in the tags your follower count and whether or not you deserve more or less.
Utterly in love with the nightshade border on Healers & Poisoners. I will definitely be using it on future projects.
hi guys.
this blog is going on hiatus for over a month because i cannot keep up with posts and school finals. sorry for the inconvenience!
and this is also a formal call for new members to this blog. i cannot run it alone really, and any help would be great for all of our followers (as you all know, we’re not updating as much as we used to mostly due to my time restraints).
you can message us on this blog here or on my primary blog here with your email and a simple promise that you’ll keep this blog updated best as you can.
thanks so much for sticking with us!
I actually feel sorry for people who hate men. Being a man and loving men and being a man who loves men brings me so much joy, and it almost makes me sad that others miss out on that just because of their backwards ideas about masculinity.
ahhh i just hit 13’000 followers????
thank you guys so much for supporting this account, i never thought something like this would happen. i’m so glad i can try and spread positivity to people and provide everyone with something to think about, thank you so so so much i’m so grateful for you guys
