Out On A Ledge

Still working on how to share the videos with you. The files are huge and even compressed, they are bigger than allowed by WordPress. Here is an almost video. These two were not around until just as the sun was going down. They stood on the Jacuzzi ledge for about ten minutes, preening.

Today was warm, and I thought maybe they were cooling their feet in the waterfall. But Google let me know that ducks’ feet have no nerves or blood vessels. So they never feel the cold, even if they swim in icy water.

Little Bird W.I.P.

Work in progress, watercolor on paper.

There is my little yellow bird painting in progress, and here is a little bird peeking in the window. I was making lunch when I heard a noise, but it took him knocking a few more times before I figured out where it was coming from.

I ran to grab my camera and I pulled out a chair to sit right where he was tapping on the window. I managed these quick shots before he took off. He came back, just as I finished eating, and I sat down to try again. But no luck. He was just too quick.

He teased me once more before I left the room. Seemed he was in a big hurry. Just a little flighty. Sorry, couldn’t resist. Maybe he was trying to invite his twin to a party!

Ducks-Day-3

I am working on a short video of these two. Thought I had it working, but nope. These photos are from Saturday. And they are back, the 6th day they have come to entertain us. Today Daisy is jumping off of the Jacuzzi ledge. Trying to catch a shot of that.

Hey, check this out! Corinna Woodard found a little sunflower inspiration and you’ll never guess where. And if you like that, you will love a look at her February felted hearts. So gorgeous right!? I was fortunate to be the winner of one of Corinna’s January giveaways. I just love this 3D piece, Tailspin is even more pretty in person. Thank you Corinna!

I started a painting today, a bird of course. Hope to share it with you tomorrow. Enjoy!
