I'm thinking of making some gulf birds- pelican, ibis maybe.. some little sandpipers--maybe turn them into a little 'band' and sell on etsy--or give to my gulf living relations. I was thinking--if you sold things like that on etsy--you could donate part of the sale to the cleanup or to a charity on the gulf. <br />I always enjoy your simple drawings! Also--I have a Quaker Parakeet-- Sweet Pea (aka 'mean pea') He lives here in Pokeberry with Bubba the mustache parakeet.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11308992169354124015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6766825872703394586.post-73351183505573005522010-06-30T13:44:53.627-07:002010-06-30T13:44:53.627-07:00What lovely pics!

The best thing I ever did was to buy a little puch that holds a pencil and colored pencils and a little sketchbook, and put it in my purse. You would be amazed at how every once in a while you can make something that looks kinda neat. It spurs you on to keep trying. I really like this Ibis too. Most of my stuff isn't that good. (Just being honest)...but I really enjoy trying...especially with theis group of artists that visit my blog and give me encouragement...(you know who you are, people)...

Those birds are fairly common around our house too. They like to hang out in the cotton and peanut fields nearby. Like you, I'm wondering if they're after bugs or seeds. You're lucky to get such a closeup of it. Whenever I try, they fly away.walk2writehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13501812375142037251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6766825872703394586.post-9456181271904496852010-06-30T03:17:20.465-07:002010-06-30T03:17:20.465-07:00You do live in another world.
