Hummingbird Hopeful
For the past couple of days I've been painting this little hummingbird. I keep thinking any day the scout will show up to my kitchen window. I always enjoy when they come. I have at least 3 feeders to get ready for them. It's been warm and nice outside. The wrens are building a nest in the back porch.(over top of Daisy's spot-when she was younger she would have chased them around the porch.)
I decided at the last minute as you can see to put some rice paper into the painting to echo the delicate blossom I picked on my walk today. Someone told me it was wild apple tree.?? It does feel like spring! talk to you soon. Diana -- do you have hummingbirds yet??(That's iridescent powder in the pill vials!)

Your painting is so lovely. Our hummingbirds come in May, but with the warm weather we've been having, I better be prepared!
