From the backyard and side yard an hour ago. I don't know if the coyotes were following the deer, or if they just happened to be going to same way a couple minutes apart. The deer clearly heard or smelled them and dashed off. #wildlife #nhwildlife #coyote

Looks like half the coyote pack was out this morning, under a full moon, walking right past our house--clearly on their way somewhere important by their pace and apparent determination. #wildlife #nhwildlife #coyote

A beautiful winter day out there with four or five inches of snow overnight. We just cleared the driveway. I hope everyone has some time to relax between now and the new year! A quick doodle in ink--pretty much what it looks like out front with our Blue Spruce covered in snow.

The maple in the side yard, showing up to the leaf color party late as usual, but always arriving with more fire than should be allowed. #leafpeeper #autumn #fall #leaves

Just hanging out with Chloe on her birthday, painting miniatures for D&D and Daggerheart. I don't play Warhammer, but I love the Citadel minis, especially the Sylvaneth. (Druanti The Arch-Revenant) Imagine trudging through a dimly lit forest and this dude steps into your path. #daggerheart #dnd5e

Our Great Blue Heron, Roger, was in the backyard today hunting for rodents, toads, frogs. Sorry about the exposure settings Roger. #nhwildlife

Just down in the basement replacing a section of copper pipe and old valves leading to the outside hose faucets. These are the two we turn off in the winter.

My art buddy, snoozing while I draw. He was a maniac, racing around the house most of the day, but it's time to crash.
