Roe deer male

 Click image to enlarge!
First sight. The Roe deer in a field below the forest.

This is what the "forest" looks like today. The place where the deer went after dismissing me.


But, I too walked into the "forest". So, we meet again.

😍

I feel bad for him to have to live in this kind of ruined forest.
This is a species that does not move around much.
This is his home!

In 2011 I visited Costa Rica on a birding tour. It was amazing. So many birds all over the place. 
But, I still remember our guide told us the number of birds had already declined. He showed us a place where they used to have a feeder but it was abanded at that time. 
So, makes me wonder how their situation are today. Can they still welcome tourists for birding trips??

Some critter fun with clay

 Click image to enlarge!

Working with clay

I was given a bunch of clay last week. From a woman on our artgallery. 

So, what to do with it?? 

I took a part of it and rolled it ith m hand. Hm, a string? Now that´s a snake! 
So, it became a cobra. 

Then it needs an environment and food. So, three of my favorite mushrooms. 
Can serve as both food and forest. 

Now, they just need some paint! Then I will post them on my ART-blog.

Wish you all a great weekend!

The black slug

 Click image to enlarge!





This one is a Black slug that I often see in fall. Mostly when walking in the forest a rainy day. 
You have to be careful not to step on it. I tried to photograph it´s face but it moves it´s four tentacles 
so quickly it was impossible.

Water skipper and horses

 Click image to enlarge!
I think this horse has problems with insects as it is always covered up.

Mom and son

Well, black and (almost) white
😏



Skippers 

There was questions on Wednesdays post. Here is an explanation of what "skippers" are. 
They are quite fun to watch as they "walk" or jump on the water surface. 

Waterskippers on WIKI!
