The annual lorikeet season of beauty and gluttony

Hey Lovely Bold Soul! I hope this finds you shining and well. I am scrambling with stuff, but enjoying the challenge and the sunshine.

If I had a totem bird it would have to be a rainbow lorikeet, so I am kinda honoured that they come each year & strip the tree screechily =)

Tell us in the commens about when you had a love-hate relationship with nature. Talk soon =) Love Meg x o

PS There is no typed text in this post. Did you notice? (Haha, unless you are reading the alt text, which I completely typed!)

PS I really want to make some lorikeet art - do you think I should do a lino print or pen drawing? (I'm thinking pen).
