Ecoline, ink and graphite on paper, work in progress…
Some of the kale seeds survived winter
Sweet peas are emerging and Roupie the Mittens is making his rounds.
A lot of things that were dormant are starting to awaken.
Summers are short around here so nature is in a hurry!
It won’t be long before colour pops everywhere.
The rainettes (tree frogs) have been singing every night for the past weeks. You can’t imagine a more beautiful concert. I have just recorded their song, you can hear it over here…
And this is the song of the grenouille taureau (bullfrog). Some of them hang out in a pond not too far from our house; I think I prefer the sweet voices of the rainettes!
What is your favourite concert?
Superbe ce dessin. J’ai bien hâte de voir le final. En regardant les photos, je me suis demandé : coup donc, le “kale”, c’est vivace?
Je crois que ce sont des graines de l’année dernière qui ont poussé tardivement et qui ont survécu à l’hiver! Il y a une dizaine de petits plants comme ça dans le potager.
Loved everything in this post Julie, the colours of your picture, nature emerging and best of all the sounds of the frogs. I had to laugh when I heard the bullfrog. I must figure out if there is some way of using it as my phone ringtone.
:-)
Ha ha! What a good idea! You would make quite an impression with that kind of ringtone!
Très beau dessin ma Suppe!
La nature s’éveille, jolies petites pousses.
Ton Ti-Mine est toujours aussi cute!
Pour répondre à ta question de my favorite concert : j’aime beaucoup la musique que fait le *Plumier Kildir*!
Ahhh! Le magnifique son des rainettes! On les entends ici parfois. Je n’arrive pas à comprendre pourquoi ce n’est pas tous les soirs. On les entends surtout au printemps.
