Mid-Week Monochrome #120 – My mode of transportation yesterday, out in the woods, searching for robins. I am hoping to combine several of my photos into a watercolor painting. Recently, I captured a few moments on video of this happy robin bathing in a swamp. There was a sweet magic in the moment.
My creative side has been recharged in the pursuit of the perfect composition. I’ll keep a blog record of my progress on this watercolor on my Snippets Art Blog. With all the water included in the video and photograph below, I will also include this in the Water, Water, Everywhere Challenge from Photos by Jez.

Skunk Cabbage beginning to emerge in January.

It is on blogger. I’m not sure how to follow on blogger if you don’t have a blog yourself, but you can use the link I have in the post. Thanks so much.

Superb post 👏 I’ve never heard of skunk cabbage before — I hope it smells better than it sounds; love the clip of the wee robin bathing 😃

It is a gorgeous swamp/wetlands plant, often growing in areas of damp underneath trees. It is luxurious in appearance, about waste high to me, and the leaves are large, a bit like a tropical leaf, very green. And yes, when you step on it, it smells like a skunk, it’s amazing! The robin was magical. The wood was filled with what seemed to be hundreds of them.

I thank you so much also for the reply. I researched the plant a bit just now…. it’s even more fascinating than I realized, and I know now why the robin was bathing in the water surrounding it. I definitely will be posting again about this amazing plant. Thanks.
