‘Winter’s Brace’, Fox sits huddled in the snow. Oil Painting

Fox closed her eyes, felt the cold on her face
She smiled at the darkness, lost in winter's brace

Solstice had come, the promise of more light
Nature's cycle was done by end of this night

She wished all souls love with the return of the sun
and #SolsticeBlessings for everyone

Nobody ever planted a tree in this photo. It was a working gravel pit 30 years ago.

We need to get over our obsession with planting trees and let nature do the job. The results are just SO much better.

It's also about realising we are not, in fact, central to everything. 🌍

There is a small, jungle-like yard near my apartment. Today, the owner started clearing all the plants, including both big trees and bushes. Now, I hear two different sounds: one from the excavator’s operation and the other from a mix of distressed birds.
