A sandy path through the dune grass leading to the beach at twilight with a tangerine sky over a silvery sea & islands silhouetted in the distance.

Mistle Thrush putting a crick in my neck...

Would anyone like to add their B&W images here...although colour is beautiful, there is something aesthetically pleasing in a monochrome image too...

No trickery, this is what it looked like yesterday. Just a phone photo. Good morning bluesky buddies.

Quiet beach sunrise this morning. The birds were up, standing on the sand and watching with me.

Today's colour is lime green. My fave shade of green! Here's a little bird I painted for a Canada Mosaic project a few years ago. It was fun. Might do it again. 😊☀️🇨🇦

How One Photo Of A Flower Reignited A Species Debate A new photo of a long-forgotten flower showed up online. Identifying it means getting into the tricky question of how a species is defined.

Spring is the flower-watching season.

When biologist Patrick McKenzie saw a photo of a certain purple flower online in January of last year, he realized it might belong to a long-forgotten species.

White camellia flower with yellow stamens.

Getting quite late for camellias but this one hung on. A late bloomer. Also the most photographed flower along the path. Unlike its brethren which had been cursed with "the tinge".

The hashtag "White As Snow" might disappoint with its ambiguity.

Thank you for all of your support that you've shown me through my channel. Art is a way to express our opinions of everything around us. Please like and follow if you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out to me and I'll try to answer to the best of my ability. I'm so glad I'm able to help.

I would love to share more of the artwork that my family and I have done over the years. We are a bit of a creative bunch. Most of my family members do art, as a career or as a hobby. Please follow if you want to see more and comment " family art” if you want me to post more of my family and my work

This piece was done by a beloved family member who just hit a big milestone. She has always been a shoulder to cry on when you need it. And can never turn away from a good cause, she is also an amazing artist. This is piece is a gift, that I cherish dearly that she did herself. Truly inspirational!

Art like many skills takes time and practice to perfect. You need to want to learn, to be able to do it well. I personally use nature as my inspiration when I'm doing art. This piece represents the sun, which is the glue that holds us all together.

Did you know, that owls like many creatures are nocturnal?
