Hummingbird moth wings beat over 30 beats a second. My camera couldn't keep up. |
To get this pic I hung out at this butterfly bush for awhile before the moth arrived, but while I waited, two monarch butterflies swept in for a few sups.
Missing theses beauties; they provided inspiration for this early coloured pencil drawing. on the needles... With snow on the ground and roofs for the second time, (it might stay this time) I decided to knit something warm: a cowl from alpaca and I have added mohair for extra warmth. Since alpaca stretches a lot, I'm hoping the mohair will help it retain it's shape. Recently, while I was reading, I discovered that mohair is the warmest fiber. Who knew? |
Enjoy the week...
