HUGE Wind . Off and On i peeked at the "sparrow" when it began in early afternoon, it was looking Ify. Scrap of prayer flag caught each gust, pulling at the nest. But soon the small twittering sound and when i peeked again, i saw one of the rose breasted ones FEEDING her. FEEDING THE MOTHER, FEEDING her like a baby bird and then she would adjust herself and FEED a hatchling!!! Several times this went on and then once early evening i watched him feed the little one which is so little, like just today, that i can't really see...just the feeding movements of the parent and the smallest of small twitter sound. So, she is NOT a sparrow but a House Finch. Who i ordinarily only see in early spring. They have never stayed. House Finch. a House Finch. Wow. And did he only feed the mother because of WIND? Because maybe she stayed with the nest to weigh it down? It's like National Geographic 12" from my nose.
had been thinking since last night about how there is never time for Aesthetics here. How i'd started to collage the front door door frame maybe 15 years ago. This is as far as that got. How i've always wanted to paint lizards on the legs of the Table. That hasn't even ever begun. All this has to do with Metta. Which seems like Everything has to do with.
including the cloth that was supposed to be Pretty
almost finished the second side with Kantha. Had originally thought to do top and bottom too, but now i don't know. It feels good that top and bottom are OPEN.
Don't know if you will be able to see the penciled lines of a profile? This is yet another Butterfly atop a head.... maybe it's time to give words to what that means to me.
It's going down to 27 degrees tonight. The apricots Held in WIND. Now tonight. We'll see.
