The boys need another one on their team because that’s the only way they can handle the avalanche of posts. Don’t you want to volunteer? 😉

Pouting…

Thanks a million, Alan! 🫶

In a way, yes, but egrets or flamingos are also really cool. Long necks and long legs, that’s what it takes. 😅

Thank you! Oh, before I started I decided on the artist and checked what was characteristic of his paintings, light, color, texture, etc. That way I had some idea of what I wanted to be the outcome.

Thank you, Robyn!

Thank you very much, Laurette, means a lot coming from you who takes such wonderful landscape photos. 💛

You need a third team member! Otherwise it takes the fun out of the challenge sooner or later.

Awesome, Anna! 😍

Happy Tuesday, Morné! 💛😀

Close-up of a Eurasian jackdaw perched among leafy branches with clusters of red-orange blossoms. The bird is shown in profile, its glossy black body contrasting with a pale grey nape and striking pale blue eye. Sunlight highlights the layered feathers on its back and wing, while the soft, blurred background of flowers and greenery adds a warm, colourful backdrop.

Oh my goodness my notifications are off the scale. I will try my best to answer everybody and look at as many #BirdOfTheDay entries as I can. Hope everyone is having a wonderful day. 🙏 #birds #Perches&Petals #photography #ECK

Take it slowly, one step at a time! 😅🫶

I’ve also got blue planters in different sizes, only blue ones. 😀

Hello Pam, can’t tell Bonnie and Ginger about that, they’d crawl into the tablet! 😂💛

Abrakadabra! 😅😉

Thank you so much, Linda, means a great deal coming from you.

Thank you! ☺️

It took a lot of experimenting before I came up with the final version. And after testing light and color for a while to compare effects I started from scratch again. In a way that did the trick.

Thank you, Marjo. 💛

Thank you, I loved experimenting with it. I have a lighter version but it wasn’t really what I thought it should be.

Four photos: Mr and Mr Swan preferred to stand on the black plastic rather than swim in the murky green pond.

Forgot to say that these colors are beautiful pastels!
