This and that

These past two days were full of everything and yet I feel that I haven't accomplished a lot.

Counting birds - this year I wished it was over soon. Thick fog, almost no waterfowl and deep snow. I forgot my camera and I was sorry. The details in the nature were beautiful. Snow on the branches created magnificent close-up views. I needed four hours for about 3-4 kilometers. This was my fourth count and each year the landscape is different. The count is done in every kind of weather, except when there is very thick fog. I always say that we are lucky when it doesn't rain.

It is still little bit messy in my living room, I was kind of creative, too. Wrapping presents (transparent flower is made by Jeffery Rudell's tutorial; I printed the paper pattern from LollyChops's blog - isn't she kind?) and trying some new tools created all that mess. And fabric lying around to sew another part of the curtain. Here is a sneak peak into my creativeness... Yes, I know, my hand is rather shaky but perhaps because of this an object created will get that special personal touch. :)
My new giraffe says hi! Finally it is in my home. I LOVE it! And my little tiger, too.
