Aflower!

The fields in the park are full of flowers this time of year. Daisies, buttercups, wild roses, lupins and many more. Perfume fills the air, I am thankful that I don't have pollen allergies because the air is laden at this time of year.

No birds this week so far, I thought you would enjoy this video, "Starlings of Otmoor":

 

 


Something completely different this week in the painting department. It is a watercolour (14" X 20") of an old truck that I saw on Gabriola Island, I call it "Out to Pasture":

I am not completely sure it is finished, I might add some sheep in the pasture in the distance, or then again maybe not.

 
Thanks for stopping by, happy Whimsy Wednesday, until next time,
