Tiny Art
I picked up a cute little sketch pad yesterday and have been filling it with drawings of weird little critters. A pair of starlings A blue ringed octopus A black widow with her egg sac and two spiderlings Sheās not a widow, but my little cupboard spider and her children were very helpful models for this one.

Rowan Crosses
Rowan berries A rowan tree Iāve been looking for a rowan tree for a little while. Theyāre not uncommon in landscaping and parks. Thereās a species or two that are native to my part of the US, and also some that were brought here from Europe. They have flashy orange berries and distinctive leaves, so theyāre fairly easy to spot. But of course, as soon as I actually wanted to find one, Iā¦

Not a Lot to Say
A lovely rock wall near a local spring Honestly, Iām pretty wiped out. Thereās a lot to do right now, but most of it doesnāt make for good blog content.

Lots of Growth
A green sweat bee in one of my dahlias Iām still working on getting the house in order. The garden has been allowed to run entirely wild, and seems overall pleased to do so. I have to push through a mini jungle to go out and feed the chickens every day, but itās pretty cool seeing what thrives out there even when Iām not very attentive. Some blueberries from the front garden

Blue Death Feigning Beetle
A death feigning beetle sketched in black ink and gray markers I got some of these guys a while back. Theyāre impressively low maintenance and entertaining pets, as insects go. As their name implies, they immediately give up and pretend to be dead when disturbed. I generally avoid triggering it, although unlike some other species it doesnāt seem to be a particularly taxing experience for them.ā¦

Cleaning Progress Shown in the Growing Consternation of my Dogs
I started by destroying their primary sanctuary (organizing the bedroom, washing all the bedding including their personal special comforter, and sweeping.) I moved on to sorting the many boxes and items of furniture that had taken up residence in the living room, forcing Toci to make a protective fort on the couch so she could keep an eye on me. Buddy simply fled. She tried to convince me toā¦

Odds and Ends
Pen and ink sketch of a very silly little white cockerel Freshly picked blue raspberries (yes, thatās a real fruit) I got to harvest the first blue raspberries from the plant I got several years back, and theyāre a delight. Itās an old variety that canāt be sold in stores because they bruise and go over-ripe far too quickly to survive shipping. Whether or not the flavoring in candies and drinksā¦

Friendly Axolotl
Got some new pens and had fun trying them out while making this little buddy.

Tapir Folk
Iāve been in a fantasy creature mood, so here are some shy forest folk working on their banana orchard. Black and white sketch of a tapir person teaching their little tapir child how to tend a newly planted baby banana plant. A wild guinea pig sits under an older plant, and a carved toy capybara and caiman sit on a log in the foreground.

Baby Roc
I wanted to try out a slightly different art style for fun, so I aimed for a more sketchy and dark vibe than I usually do and drew a ālittleā hatchling roc. Rocs are giant mythical predator birds, and I am a fan. It really needs a sacrificial elephant for scale, but I didnāt think of that till it was finished. Still, it was fun, and I think it turned out pretty cute and appropriately fierce.

Natural Disasters aren't Supposed to be Pleasant
Natural Disasters arenāt Supposed to beĀ Pleasant
I know this is a silly title, but Iām genuinely concerned that a large number of people out there might not fully understand the concept of a disaster. They just donāt seem to get that major historical events like novel plagues are inherently inconvenient, and that living through them (or not living through them, as the case may be) sucks ass. These folks seem bizarrely indignant at the idea thatā¦

The Plague Chicken
Sometimes you just have to go full morbid to cope with living through a worldwide natural disaster that just wonāt end. Hereās my little friend, the Plague Chicken. She started out as a mostly normal sketch of one of my turken chicks, but rapidly turned into a disturbing monster. (More than the usual for those pocket velociraptors, anyway.)
Sheās surrounded by herbs and flowers that were usedā¦

Just Keep Swimming
I spent most of election day stress-organizing my office, which was at least somewhat productive. I also had to replace all the covers on all the electrical wires, because my rabbit is a bully who likes to break my stuff. (RIP my cute pink Razer mouse.) Then I propagated and repotted some of my cooler carnivorous houseplants, had a few breakdowns while doomscrolling, and ate donuts for dinner.ā¦

Lies. Not Fake News, not AlternativeĀ Facts.
First of all, the president of the United States is trying to pull off a coup. He is trying to cheat his way to another term by throwing out the legal and legitimate votes against him. He said that was what he planned to do. He said he would try. He is now doing exactly what he said he would do. He has consistently shown all of us what kind of person he is, and I have believed him from the start.ā¦

My Heart Broke This Morning But I put it back together, again. A few months and several decades ago, I drove for an hour and picked up three adorable but surly hens, right before the stay at home orders came down in my state.
