I commented on a George Takei post & it seems people have been commenting on it ☺️ Even some followed me because of it? So, it’s probably a good time to remind people I’m usually more 🎶 bird, bird, bird; bird is the word🎶 🪶 Hope you still stick around 😄 #berwickswren #wren #pnwbirds #boatmanorinknest

Many don't realize that the most vulnerable or immune compromised depend on the rest getting vaccinated properly to keep diseases from spreading out of control. It's not just “my body, my choice” when it comes to saving lives.

This just in at #BOATManorink on New Years Day. We have a new family who has moved in to be inspired by. The Annas hummingbirds are not a fan yet. But a #berwickswren has moved in and made a nest out of my hanging moss planter I left out. #wren 🪶 #nest

I love this whole series. Happy New Years BlueSky. Do yourself a favour and check out the recap of 2017-2024 complemented with an instrumental Polka soundtrack. It’s just delightful. As my daughter would say “magnificent” #illustration #newyearsart #newyearseve #art
It's time for the passing year!

✨🌟✨Happy new year!!✨🌟✨

Wishing you the best as always, health and success for you through 2026!

Keep it up!

Stopped at the bookstore today and saw The Great Mouse Escape
with my daughter today. The illustrations are incredible @jenniferlmeyer.bsky.social what she got instead Haunted Canada by @joelasutherland.bsky.social volume one and two. A little bit different taste 😅 but glad she’s reading ☺️

#artvsartist for 2025! I felt like I hadn't done a lot and then I found I couldn't pick which ones to include because there were more than I remembered! These ones go well together with color & style 💜

A blurry photo on a rainy Christmas Eve in Metro Vancouver/Fraser Valley but I had to stop to take a photo of this blue heron. It was the 5th one I saw perched on traffic lights and man made objects on my short drive. Definitely feeling like we’re encroaching on their turf more and more. #blueheron

@lorichirp.bsky.social Did you hear there was a Taiga Flycatcher at Sunset Beach on Vancouver Day? I just saw a reel and thought of you. It’s not great footage and I didn’t know what it is but exciting!

Taken out by Noro, hence no art. Still recovering. Honestly I hate it and was just as bad as the 3x before. 1st in my early twenties curtesy of a baby cousin, once in my 30’s pregnant as a pediatric nurse from an outbreak at work. Now? No clue but highly suspecting our kids who only got the sniffles

It’s #kidlitartpostcard day! I have a new piece based on a story that is stuck in my head. It felt appropriate for the season, so enjoy this fun but bad idea between two unlikely friends!

E.C . Dove is venturing into our Cherry tree more often down from the Oak Tree. They quite like the temporary pumpkin 🎃 feeders I’ve been putting up and changing out. I know they are invasive but I hope they never leave - look at that face.

As a former Canadian Nurse I am appalled at this proposal by the USA department of Education. 20k cap for graduate nursing programs-Ridiculous. Nurse Practitioners are a solution to a health care crisis. This will penalize women and minorities as a majority.

I joined #Folktaleweek2025 for #boatmanorink I’ve been working out a ‘season two in my head’ while needing to complete season 1 panels - this is all just for me & for fun.
