Day 3 of #ArtAdventCalendar: It's always hard to find the perfect tree-topper, but I think I've done it! #wildlife
A Great Horned Owl sits on the top of a thin evergreen tree. The weight of the owl bends the top branch downwards.

Eugene Grasset (1845-1917) :
Let’s Welcome December, 1894

Grasset received a commission from the French department store La Belle Jardinière to create 12 original works of art to be used as a calendar in 1894.

Further description in the alt text 👇
Grasset’s woodcuts show women in fashionable clothing of the period each bearing a sign of the zodiac in the design. The women are in gardens, tending to the plants and flowers, which reflect the changing seasons. With blank spaces for the calendar dates, these works were compiled into a portfolio titled “Les Mois” (The Months) and published by the Parisian publisher G. de Malherbe in 1896

An evening in Queenstown, wandering the shoreline in Blue Hour.
Rather a nice way to walk off dinner. :)

The scene is set against a backdrop of mist-covered hills and cliffs near Proposal Rock, with forested slopes and waves crashing under a cloudy sky.

Waves gently meet the shoreline beneath a sunlit sky as evergreen trees frame the edge of Beach 4 on Washington's Olympic Peninsula.

A sunlit coastal view from a forested bluff overlooks Beach 4 in Washington. Waves roll gently onto a narrow beach lined by tall evergreens and grassy slopes. The sky is bright blue with puffy white clouds, and dark sea stacks are visible just offshore in the sparkling water.

The mini jungle in my greenhouse. Cucumbers, tomatoes, aubergines& salad bits. I keep some nasturtiums in too as it encourages the pollinators to pop in for a visit.

Another understated bird, the male Black-crested Coquette hummingbird at @tapirvalley.bsky.social #CostaRica

Close-up of a tiny bird perched on a green stem. It has an iridescent green head with fine whisker-like feathers, a striking pink-red bill, and a distinctive spotted pattern on its white chest. The bird's neck features black stripes with cream accents, and its body shows metallic green and gold hues. The background is softly blurred in muted green tones, highlighting the bird's intricate details and colorful plumage.
