Left over from Sunday’s breakfast.
Kayaking with R and K at the Apostle Islands, Bayfield, Wisconsin (That’s K in the tunnel).
All. The. Time.
One of my mushrooms from today’s hike.
The saddest thing I know of.
I went for a walk in the woods today and thanks to the wet weather, there were mushrooms EVERYWHERE. I’ve literally never seen so many, and so many kinds. Inspired by this clown I watch on youtube (no, really: he was an actual clown) I took a mess of photos and put them into a slideshow. Puffballs! Destroying angels! Orange mushrooms! Purple mushrooms! (no, really: purple mushrooms. I’ve never even heard of purple mushrooms before.)
If you guys know about mushrooms, I’d love to know if you know any of the kinds I photographed, especially the really odd-looking ones.
Today’s prompt: Hungry.
As I was sitting down to draw tonight and wondering what I was going to do for today’s entry, Paul called up from the kitchen that there was a bowl of popcorn for me. Problem solved! (Also, Paul makes the best popcorn. My popcorn is terrible by comparison.)
This was a fun little inkwash experiment, with one drop of Rapidograph ink and a lovely Raphael 8404 I’ve had for several years and don’t use enough.
Today’s prompt: Collect.
Here’s a small portion of my collection of desk fidgets. I have a whole bowlful, but these are the ones I fidget with most often, not counting my lip balm and kneaded erasers. I have nervous hands and have found that I both learn and listen better if I give them something to worry on while my brain does its thing.
Today’s prompt: Noisy.
After forty years of hearing them in the nighttime trees I finally looked up what insects made that conversational “Zik zik zik? Zik zik zik. Zik zik zik?” noise. They’re katydids.
As much as autumn is my favorite season, I always regret hearing fewer and fewer night bugs as the weather gets colder. I’ll miss you, noisy bugs. See you next May.
