Crown shyness. Pretty Zen, no? Stare. Lose yourself. Come back though.
A picture of a tree canopy exhibiting crown shyness where each tree has a gap between the uppermost leaves and branches of itself and its neighbour.

Sometime during 2025's Winter: my Harley Quinn is reaching her gray fluffy paw out to me from underneath the tan polar fleece sheets. A teal blanket shows along the top of the picture. Slightly purring, she is as snug as a kitty-bug. Oh, my heart! ₍^̮-̣^̮₎ zᶻ 💖

Yesterdays progress..
This is a close-up of a work in process. The medium is a collage of hand painted papers on canvas. In the upper left corner are darkly hued purple/maroon daisy-like flowers, which are mostly completed. White daisies are sketched on the canvas with acrylic in the upper right waiting to be collaged. In the bottom center of the image is a large single bloom in shades of bright yellow. aves and stems surrounding the flowers.

I don't remember seeing so many ants on the buds in my camellia bush, but here they are! So many buds and teeming with ants! I am excited that I will be seeing a lot of blooms!

Today's bird for #birbfest was simply nuthatch, which I assume means we get to pick our own variety! Here's a white-breasted nuthatch in an iconic nuthatch pose.

From a reference photo by user megachile on inaturalist

#BirbFest2026 #SciArt #Birds
Digital painting of a white-breasted nuthatch clinging to the right side of a smallish tree trunk. It is in profile facing down except it has its neck and head stretched so that it is gazing out the right side of the image. It is a small bird with black cap, white head, neck and belly with soft gray wings with a touch of light blue and highlighted by edges of black and white.

A digital drawing of a stygian owl--it's a brown owl with white flecked on its underbelly and around its bright orange eyes. It has two tufts of feathers on its head that look like ears. Signature: Interstellarchaosss

I've just finished this piece and I'm not sure if it needs some sort of background. I'm not used to painting on 5x7" postcard size paper, but I'm hoping to send something for the @paeartforacause.bsky.social art exhibition for Alzheimer's.

Scripps Pier in La Jolla, San Diego, California

#sandiego #lajolla #beach #sunset #scrippspier #landscapes_lovers #photography
The Scripps Institution of Oceanography research pier stretches diagonally across the frame at sunset, silhouetted over the Pacific. Evenly spaced columns recede into the distance while wet sand in the foreground reflects the pier and the orange horizon in long, rippled bands beneath a pale blue sky.

Heard the dogs getting excited about something downstairs and saw this squirrel in the bird feeder.

I took this pic and just stood there like, “Oh, umm…. By all means. Don’t let me stop you.” 🤭
