I like drawing Gustavo the #hamster too. He’s very smol.

A Cavapoo being drawn by me.

I am usually more of a cat person but I’m definitely getting into the joys of dog. My sister’s dog is a whole lot of fun. #cavapoo

My neighbours report daffodils are poking up! I can’t wait to get back. I need some spring. I’ve had my first snowblower experience here. Good but slow in these conditions.

A sufficiency!

Watercolour study of a cavapoo dog

Stuck indoors from #snowpocalypse2026 so doing some #watercolour studies #cavapoo

My sister’s #cavapoo is seriously missing her. Stays strongly glued to me (her temp guardian) because I sound a lot like my sister. I feel for her. Dogs have their chosen person that their entire world revolves around.

I think I’ve had that one but it was explaining Four Lions to my husband 🤔

Oh, the grand old duke of york

Not the clearest photo but this is one of my smaller charges this month: Gustavo The Hamster. He likes a blueberry. #hamster

#MaterDolorosa (Our Lady of Sorrows), German created around 1480 from @metcloisters.bsky.social today. We had a stupendous time visiting this museum today.

I’ve seen worse chest tattoos. 🤭

St Michael giving the Antichrist a lil scale and polish #thecloisters The alligator epaulets really sell the entire outfit.

Mood.

Thank you!

For #birdoftheday today it’s #birdbutts and the landing gear of a #greyheron #birdphotography #eastcoastkin #ardeacinerea

Seriously missing my dad today. Full of grief. This is a self-portrait he made in the late 1950s. #photography #filmphotography #blackandwhite

Wow

Oh man!

Oh yum!

I love ‘em! They all gang up and make little outraged noises at me to refill the feeders. The teen is in charge of this while I’m away.

For today’s #BirdOfTheDay and the theme of #portrait I have a #longtailedtit from my garden (tail not shown). We often miss their kicky yellow #eyeliner. Lovely little things. #birds #birdphotography #eastcoastkin #Aegithaloscaudatus

Oh dear. No. I have to go back and forth to help. Mom is almost 85 and my sis needs breaks.

Thanks pal. I’ll be grateful to get back to Scotland. 😞

New Jersey. A “purple” state. And my family are mostly Hispanic. Mild apprehension 🫣

Off to terrible Trumplandistan to look after my mama for a few weeks. She just had surgery on Monday. Hope I make it back 👀

It absolutely won’t be and also? This is nothing new. Power corrupts people in this direction towards destroying the innocent. Because they can. See: The Catholic Church, clergy in general, scouting, other unequal power structures like Hollywood (#me too)

“Underage women”? Try that again. He raped CHILDREN. “Underage women” is rapist for “child”.
