I haven't seen any osprey chicks yet this year, but they should start hatching around now.

In the meantime, here's one of my favorite captures of three juvenile ospreys. I took this two years ago.

@irisknowsart.bsky.social Echinacea Abstract

Abstract Echinacea Core - I love getting close to nature and bringing out the details most do not see at the first glaze. The stamen, core, and center of flowers have a tiny ecosystem of their own. This stunning close-up of the coneflower Echinacea is simply stunning and inviting. No wonder insects and humans are attracted to this beautiful healing flower. The coneflower center displays an array of bright colors such as green, yellow, orange, and purples.

Thank you to the buyer for purchasing a t-shirt in my online TeePublic shop!

A different viewpoint of gas lamps affixed to the exteriors of structures. The main focus is on the first lamp, with the following five lamps gradually diminishing in size and blending into a gentle blur. I altered the color of my original picture to bronze hues, giving it a classic vintage look. Photo Art by Debra Martz

Golden leaves cling to graceful tree branches under a clear blue sky. In the center, two branches meet forming the shape of a heart. Sunlight filters through the foliage, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere. I added digital enhancements and textures to create this photo art. By Debra Martz

#FebruArty 2025 day 12: orange
This is an old watercolor but what I've got orange.
"Swamp thing"
Watercolor predominantly orange with brown details. A white sun blazes down on the water and brown reeds of a Swamp, heat haze obscuring the distance into vague brown shapes of the tree line. Swimming directly towards the viewer is a serpent-like monster, it's nose, reddish eyes, and ridge of spines break the surface of the water, with glimpses of the long serpentine body breaking the surface in curves out behind it.

Oh, this cute little red (orange) fox fits today's #FebruArty theme too! Do you ever argue about what color things are? I used to know someone who would always disagree with me saying something was orange. I think we all probably perceive colors slightly differently?
Cute art piece of a drawing of a little orange fox sitting among white-barked birch trees with its fluffy tail wrapped around its feet. There are golden and brown leaves falling all around.

#FebruArty -Puzzle- It's puzzling to me that I received an award from my peers a few years ago. This drawing of a wren commemorates the sculpture that I was custodian of for a time before passing it to the next recipient. Birds are a favorite subject for my art. #TraditionalArt #drawing #art #birds
Charcoal pencil drawing with white highlights on parchment colored paper depicting a wren on a branch in profile facing left with its claw grasping a sculptural triangular shape in white with multi-colored circles embedded in it. That part was done in soft pastel.

A black and white Tuxedo cat stands in front of a dreamy abstract background in various shades of blue and gazes curiously upwards. Soft, loose, abstract brushstrokes create a sense of depth and movement around the cat. The cat's tail is raised in a curved shape. Happy Tuxedo Cat is an acrylic painting in portrait format hand-painted by the artist Karen Kaspar.

Amidst dense dry grass, a small bird with speckled brown and white plumage peers out, blending into its natural habitat. Its surroundings provide camouflage, making it look almost part of the textured landscape. Photography by Debra Martz
