full moon | wide awake | 'til dawn
A Twitter poem from WATERMARK
A daily practice of sketching and painting gives you a chance to exercise the big three P's - practice, practice, practice!

"Crows at Dusk" watercolour on Bockingford 300gsm - Maree©
I can assure you this is not my dark side emerging! I had a Black Crow as a pet for 20 years (she was 27 when she died) and I absolutely love these endearing and highly intelligent birds.

"Coco" my Black Crow - She used to take this stance and make a ka-ka-ka sound, like the horn of a car. It must be a natural sound of theirs, because I've heard crows in the wild doing the same thing.
Hurray! A fellow crow lover! They are amazing and lucky you to have had one as a pet!
ReplyDeleteA childhood friend had one by the name of 'Grubbie' but it wasn't real fond of non-family members.
Nice to meet you, thanks for following my blog!
