I am, by no means, talented. But watercolor is fun. And colors make me happy. Given Valentine's Day is right around the corner, I thought this was worthwhile to share. #watercolor #valentinesday

I put out a deicer and a bowl of water so everyone has access to water this winter. (And especially this weekend as it's been FRIGID)
This little guy is using it to have a snack and warm his butt.

Given, oh, everything going on in the world it felt like an excellent time to bust out my favorite book: Lamb by @theauthorguy.bsky.social
Fun fact. It was neither my birthday nor the holidays but my mom said I should say it is which is why the inscription is that way.

So. I'd had up for MONTHS a plastic tube feeder for the birds. Some enterprising squirrel figured out they could chew through it. So I replaced it, MERE HOURS AGO, with an all metal one.
