Begginer artist at the fantastic age of 40 something, cancer survivor, cat and human mom, friend, lover, queer. Struggles with SAD led to me deciding to be my own fucking sunshine one day and I haven't looked back. You can consider that a promise & threat.

Time for a new pinned post! I'm Max and I'm here to bring a moment of peace to your dash. Art, cats, links to good news that isn't political, and all sorts of stuff! While I'm a devoted democratic socialist, I'm not here for that. I read it all, but i pass along the calm in the chaos.

Spent some time outside working on my whimsy.

First up was filling bird feeders. Plus the little tray to appease the squirrels. Squirrels count as cat tv so I've made my peace with them.
5 bird feeders, different styles with little repetition hang from a 5 hook Shepard's hook. All 5 feeders are completely full of black oil sunflower seeds. There is also a little wire tray PILED with the same seeds for easy squirrel access.

I always love seeing and trying to capture hummingbird moths every summer. Didn't see as many as normal this year but I thought this one was beautiful. #BlueSkyArtShow #Small #BlueSkyPhotography #BlueSkyPhotographer #NatureLovers

Our friend Peracca's Plump Toad is a very rare species of toad who lives in the Andes of southern Colombia and northern Ecuador! They are one of a few toads who are born directly as small toads and do not have a tadpole stage! (photo by Augustin Bussac)
A small, stocky, perhaps plump, black toad sitting on a dark brown leaf! The toad has rough skin and a small ridge of oval shaped bumps down their side! They also have a somewhat angular nose, forming a point!

To the right, a close rocky view of Cape Greco reveals intricate formations of coarse, weathered limestone cliffs and natural sea caves, with the stunningly clear, deep blue sea to the left of the view. The rocks, appearing a mixture of bright white,orange/brown and black, plunge dramatically into the Mediterranean.

There's nothing like hanging out and watching a great grey owl hunt... and maybe taking a few photos. 😉
