That's what I've been up to since 98 degrees is a little to hot for

me. I do run out and fill the birdbaths and feeders for my fine

feathered friends. I have a chickadee that has delivered a batch

in the birdhouse right off our deck. She is exhausted trying to feed 

them all. Yesterday one baby appeared at the opening and he was huge.

I fear he better fly soon or he won't be able to get out.

He is twice the size of his momma.

Life is always amazing to me.

Look Who Came to Visit and a Few WC Cards

This little guy has been coming to visit almost every evening.

 His momma comes with as she is very protective of him. I am sure 

she senses that he is different. She seems to trust me and lets

me get fairly close to take his picture. He is a little love.

 Had a request for these herb cards from a friend.

I have lavender everywhere in all my gardens.

One can never have enough of this treasured

plant. 

 She is giving these to a friend who is

really into herbs and a great gardener.

 I grow borage because I love the flower.

Rosemary I grow and use a lot to 

season. Really love rosemary.

Well it's Friday and I am off to town for a little

shopping and meeting friends for lunch.

Have a great weekend.

Be creative!!!!!!

Sunny Spring is Here...

So Teddy, DH and I headed up to the 

lake for our first Spring walk. We 

will not discuss how out of shape I

am...no we won't!

But I was also on a mission to photograph

textures. The trees certainly had lots

to show after our wet winter. 

(there was still a small pile of snow in the 

parking lot)

Anyway lots of things growing on

the trees.

And bark that showed the high

winds we have had

When we got home Teddy proceeded

to take a long nap and I took a 

photo of a very large paw print 

with nails... by are front door.

Wonder if it was our local 

bobcat visiting ....

Not a great photo but I think you can 

see where the nails dug in (TOP).

Tomorrow they say the rain is

returning, which might be good 

as I fear I shall be a tad bit stiff.

Who me..naw , I am the picture of

vitality. Yah right.

Nature study...( 30 in 30 day 3 )

watercolor, pen and ink

This was of a seabird feather,ocean stones 

and coral bark maple twig.

I love collecting different natural items.

 Different textures, colors and structure.

Nature is amazing,isn't it.
