| Another doodle that I finished over the weekend. Most of my sketches have a bird in them. They are such delightful creatures--creators of mystery and wonder. |
Recently my son, Jesse, and I were out feeding the birds. When these chickadees, inquisitive and a little cautious, flew down for a seed they did pause to stare at us. Hopefully, when we go back to visit, they will remember the funny wingless beings bearing hard seeds to crack.
"I realized that If I had to choose, I would rather have birds than airplanes. " Charles Lindbergh And to sum up: "I'd like to paint the way a bird sings." Monet May your week be filled with wonder. 'Til next time... |
Your drawings are sweet and I love your photos. That bird in the video was amazing, especially the shutter of the camera.

Your drawings are lovely. I absolutely adore the top one with the birdhouse, bird and flowers. Beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteGreat post, Dixie! I love the chickadees and the Lindbergh quote.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Carolyn. When I came across that quote by Lindbergh, I was a bit surprised, so I had to include it.
DeleteThat bird is fabulous - he'd make you smile in the morning :) The camera shutter ahahahahaha fantastic. How clever he is.
ReplyDeleteYour doodles are just beautiful.
Thank you, Fil
DeleteIt's amazing what he can do. He is a charming fellow! A fine mimic for sure.
I did see a glimps of the Lyre bird when I visited Queensland. But not long enough to get a shot :(
ReplyDeleteLove your art. I have an art meme if you want to share it.

Amazing how tame those little birds were! Clever of you to get a photo without scaring him off.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun experience to capture! A true bird in the hand!
ReplyDeleteHow did I miss this post?!! It's so great that they came down to sit on your fingers. The blue "doodle" is beautiful. Love the curious look on the bird. The lyre bird is gorgeous, Dixie. Will you make a painted version of it?

How wonderful that the bird flew to your hand and amazing that you managed to take photos. I'd never have been that organised! Your 'doodles' are beautiful too, though I feel bad saying 'doodles'. They really are works of art :)
