Owl Babies


Remember the owl sitting on her nest at Metrobeach? Well, now there are babies. YAY, two of them. I took this with my little point and shoot through a spotting scope.

Here is my latest painting, a water color of pansies. It didn't scan altogether well. I have misplaced my garden journal and my nature journal, so this is on arches 140 lb 9 x 12 paper. Click to view larger.

    That owl is too cute! A terrific and I think, quite rare, capture!

    I like the pansies, too. A lot.

    Just noticed on your profile that you're 263 years old. Holy crap, I'm only 261!
