T stands for....fine tea from Harrods!

 Hello! A little bit late to the T party, but here I am. Found this beautiful poppy on one of my lunch break walks.


Of course there must be some bird paintings. Some will find a place in my 2026 bird calendar. Here's a portrait of an Eurasian Jay.


I fell in love with terns lately. I mean....some individuals of Arctic Terns travel up to 90.000 km in ONE year. Without navigation gear and lunchbox. I mean....WOW!


How does the garden grow? My neighbour planted and elder bush three years ago. Look at it! She said to cut off any flowers or berries I want for juice or syrup. Yum!


Here in my area it was still cold during the nights, so I waited with planting tomatoes, eggplants etc. But the potatoes are in since end of April and they are doing great. Mulched with straw.


Peppers and tomatoes are in by now, but still very small.


I bought this little tin years back in London, when I visited family there. Still have it and keep fine teas in it. Nice memories!

  1. Your bird drawings are wonderful. Nice if your neighbor to let you have some of the elderberries. Your garden looks spectacular. Himself is just starting to plant seedlings outside that he started indoors. Happy T Day

  3. Sorry I'm late visiting. I forgot to check for late visitors until now.

    It's amazing how poppies will grow in the most unusual places. They seem to strive well where other flowering plants will not.

    Your birds are beautiful. I am so in awe of your talent.

    I can see why you kept that Harrods tea tin. It is beautiful and is a perfect addition to T this week, dear Kokopelli.

  4. OK, your garden is amazing. It is cold here too and my peppers haven't grown at all. Love your art always.
