"Nature has a beautiful habit of surprising us day by day." Marjolein Bastin
Back to journaling every day. Some months, I get away from it and then I feel all out-of-sorts. I miss writing and making each day meaningful and memorable. I'm spending time dog-sitting this week and so I have time to sit and think and write. Yesterday morning, I heard what sounded like a loud duck. When I looked out the back window, it was a heron, who looked like a huge dinosaur flying by with his long long neck and his long long legs, and a small little bird chasing him! I wonder if he was trying to get something out of the little one's nest? Do they do that? It was a sight!
Well, then in another book, I am drawing plants. After beginning to read a book called "A Daily Creativity Journal - 365 - Make Something Every Day And Change Your Life", I thought it sounded like such fun and was thinking how I always wanted to do some botanical drawing and could start by practicing here. After one year, there should be improvement!
It is a very calming process for me. Then, looking at another wonderful book "Mixed Mania", they talk about paper dolls. Another favorite thought! I may have to try them too!
Meanwhile, Missy scans the yard for anything moving...

Lately I've noticed little birds chasing a hawk. The small birds get real close, like they are nipping at the hawk.
