The whole intersection and off ramps from 417 are closed. Highly recommend avoiding the area if you can. Police are on the scene. There is quite a bit of water on the road at the intersection.
Red morph Eastern screech owls. So nice of them to pose among the flowers!
Hola everyone, this is kind of a random topic, but I'm interested in learning the word for a town hall or town meeting and how it might be different across Latin America. Searching on the internet, I keep getting the term cabildo abierto, but it seems more historically used for discussing a specific issue rather than a general meeting. I'm more interested in the term you would fill in here, "El alcalde convoca a un/a <town meeting>." And if there's a different term used in Honduras vs. Uruguay, etc.
I hope this makes sense. ¡Gracias a todos!
This is based on a photo of a butterfly (I believe a monarch) that I took a few years ago.
I really want to develop some skill with balancing watercolor and ink. Here, I painted the butterfly first in purple, orange, and blue, and then loosely did the flowers in a rough way. This was on 6x6 inch paper so really tough to get details. The ink was a combination of 01 Micron pen and ink brush. I hope it looks okay. Feedback is welcomed!
I thought people might want to know that it's blooming. Parking was extremely limited at the arboretum because of the beautiful weather today, so be prepared for that!
ETA: this was at Dominion Arboretum, sorry for not including that in the original post 🌸
You can only see the square when it looks right at you.
I'm in Canada so I can't put them outside unfortunately. The aloe and cacti are very happy, the aeonium is new, and I'm just keeping my fingers crossed for the lithops. I recently repotted all of them to about 50/50 organic/inorganic, with the exception of the lithops which is 20/80 organic/inorganic.
I just saw this article on VegNews and I got so excited! Does anyone know more?
