The cherry trees in the avenue were not yet in bloom - but the weeping blood plums (Prunus cerasifera) in front of the Café Orchidee were.

Watercolor sketch of a white-flowering tree in a park.

A dog that didn't want to be drawn, lots of 'Achoo!' and woodpecker tapping.
The flowering cherry plum was a popular subject for photos.

A two page spread of a few things i saw on my walk
Top sketch: an attempt to clarify the underlying shape of the wings folding together on the back of a bald eagle Bottom sketch: a sketch of two bald eagles sitting on a branch. The eagles have white heads and tails and black/ brown wings and bodies. Their beaks are yellow and their brow creates a sharp, imposing expression. The sky is bright blue behind them, clear of clouds
Sketch: a roughly drawn squirrel Text: This squirrel ran up to me, its little footsteps thumping on the board walk far before i saw it.. we saw each other and both stiffened up, so absorbed in our own activities we didnt expect to see each other
Sketch: an old fallen log with a large hole, seeming to extend further into the trunk than we can see. Text: I wonder what has found shelter in this log.. it seems like a great place to shelter for a storm
Went out to our local marsh yesterday and did a few sketches. It was windy and a little cold though so there was only so much my fingers could take!

A sketchbook in front of illuminated display cases containing fossils. A giant insect hovers above. Text: Carboniferous The Carboniferous period began 358 million years ago. At that time, present-day Dortmund was located on the equator, and the climate was tropical, humid, and warm. In the vast swampland between the coast and an extensive mountain range, forests of tree-high horsetails and clubmosses grew. Giant insects buzzed among the plants, and millipedes several meters long crawled about. The Carboniferous period also holds special significance for the Ruhr region: Over the course of geological history, the remains of these plants formed massive coal seams. The Carboniferous period ended 296 million years ago.
#naturesketching with #uskdortmund at the Natural History Museum. Carboniferous - or the age of giant insects. 🪰😍

#snowdrops - Thriving beauties of nature, braving the bitterness of cold. Their closed petals hanging like lanterns in the days gloom. Stirring hope in our souls for the wonder and warmth of spring to come.

I might like the idea of urban sketching more than the practice. What would this be called, #naturesketching ?
I tried to just be relaxed with this one and not get caught up in technical stuff. I want to enjoy art again!

Spider resting in hydrangea blossom.
Today, between rain showers, I observed a garden spider (Araneus diadematus)🕷️
It caught a honeybee and retreated with its prey to the shelter of a hydrangea blossom.
