Did Anyone Get Pictures of the Heifer Parade Couple, The Fly and The Naturalist With His Net ?

This year in the Heifer Parade, my wife Cynthia was a scatophagid fly, stopping at each cow pile, and I was a naturalist with my entomologist net. We know many people took photos, but wonder if anyone who snapped a shot of us might post one here, so we could see it.

Thanks,

Rolf

Did anyone else have to swerve to avoid a tire or similar-looking object lying in Putney Road between Eaton Ave & Vermont Ave around 8pm last night (Monday 4/22)?  We sacrificed a mirror to one of those telephone poles right next to the southbound lane (he ones all scarrd up from being hit by other vehicles, plow blades, etc).  Nothing seen in daylight this morning except mirror fragments by the pole.
