I’ve been pondering on why using #oldcrockern bothers me so much.
I think it’s the gentrification, the twisting something old and mean and part of this place into a fairytale saviour to be called up on a whim
You don’t know #Dartmoor if you think he’s going to be at all biddable.
Here, have a pair of judgemental #ravens for #Halloween.
Probably wondering at the unkindness of our government who are a true horror story for any who happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, no need for ghosts and ghouls or scary films when you have ‘holding’ camps.
Been away.
Revisiting where my dad was bought up in #Scotland, #kintyre
A week of no doom scrolling, no WiFi, no tv
A swimsuit and a big pad of #watercolour paper, some #weather and some excellent friends instead
Yeah. That was needed
What have I missed? Anything important?
@LevParikian @IanMartin @RareNeilPearson @exkevinmcnally Happy birthday.
May it be filled with birds shouting* at each other
(*swearing)
@JLewisStempel I was recently asked where I would plant 100 #oaks on a neighbours farm.
I think I wouldn’t, not here in our oaky valley.
I think I would leave that job to the #jays and just find and protect what they plant.
After all, they are the experts in this particular game!
Been sketching (from photos) trying to work out the shape and feel of a #kingfisher
I have an idea for a embroidery but first... sketching lots!
Saw two birds flit about in one of our hedges yesterday, as I walked home from checking the sheep. The light caught their wings, all flurry and movement and bright feathers.
So #ink #watercolour #pencil and #pastel all got used to try to catch the moment.
@happyhillers @DorsetWildlife @Britnatureguide @WoodlandTrust @CountryfileMag Yep. I think that’s one. Very purple round the edges and quite large!
@coleopteriste @minibeastmayhem Right. Now I just have to get it printed onto the organic calico, cut out, stitched up and ta da! Done!
I may do tea towels too, because Every kitchen needs a dung beetle in it!
