Picassa, the cat at the Eccles Community Art Center where I work is checking out a Jack O' Lantern.

Fall Colors - Watercolor

I wonder if my watercolor set can capture the colors of Fall.  What do you think?

Visiting Caterpillar

I found this colorful caterpillar in the garden yesterday.

I can not decide whether it reminds me of a Pekinese Dog or of Albert Einstein.  Notice the hair.

Fall Harvest Continues

A Stettler's Jay has joined the local squirrel in harvesting acorns from the canyon's oak trees.

Fall Harvest

Over the summer, I have watched the acorns grow.  Now, they are being harvested by the local squirrel.  Acorn shells and oak leaves litter the grown beneath the oak trees.  This busy squirrel frustrates my dog Mollie.  It invades her yard but travels a highway of tree branches above her head.  I hear Mollie barking.  The squirrel must be working on its Fall harvest.
