I am delighted that 7 of the original 12 dino babies are doing really well over at Beddington Park. I have also noticed that another pair have a very secret nest around the back of the lake so I am hoping in the next couple of weeks to see another new clutch of fluffy babies.
I think they are this pair who were at another area up until a couple of weeks ago and then disappeared. I call them Derby and Joan
The photo below was shot from a long way away, they are in a really sensible location for their nest. I am pretty sure it is the same pair from where I call the "Fish pond"

Here are some of the first baby dinos, taken a few weeks ago.
Then this photo below is from last week. You can see they have nearly all their adult feather now, they are so very beautiful. These are 5 of the 7.
There is also another pair of dino ducks down at the ponds who managed to get 5 of their 12 babies to toddler age too. They are real balls of fluff and look like mint humbugs.
They are so funny the way they stretch out their legs and all huddle together
and they are enjoying pond life!
I will keep you posted how my nested "Derby and Joan" get along.
My project to share today is a tag I made recently after watching Tim Holtz' awesome Facebook lives.
All the stamps and stencils are by him and I think the sentiment fits really well. I made the background with distress inks.
I would like to enter it into the following challenges;
Creative fingers 3/3 anything goes
Art impressions 1/2 animals and nature

A lovely and colourful tag. Thanks for joining AYLI challenge. Elaine
ReplyDeleteOh they dinos sure are growing. The tag is beutiful, such wonderful colours
ReplyDeleteHopefully more babies on the way then which is wonderful, they really are very sweet. Our ten cygnet family is now down to seven and the five cygnet family down to two, it makes me sad that they all don't make it, nature can be hard.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful little tag as always my friend, wishing you a wonderful weekend,
