Prep, Punctures, and Art Pictures

With the first of our Winter Worky Days tomorrow, today was spent getting the gear and tools sorted . Sadly a few puncture repairs had to be re-done plus a new one, but it was good to clear a back log and feel content that we were ready for the day. Doing preparation was not that forth coming with decent photos for the blog. The dull, overcast, with a threat of rain sort of day did not inspire me to instinctively get my camera out.

With that in mind, the lack of photos from the children’s event yesterday evening seems ideal to fill the void. Here they are examining the owl pellet contents. 

If you are interested in art, then the event on the 31st October and 1st November may be your thing. 

The course will be an opportunity to forage for fungi and identify species, then learn to draw, set up a composition and use water colour techniques to paint this exciting and fascinating subject, looking at colour, texture and form.

Cost £40 for the two day course. See the events page on the Foxglove Covert Home page, the course is the Botanical Painting of Fungi, but as you can see from the course tutors work it can also lead on to a wider skill set in botanical painting.  

 See you tomorrow if you are coming to the Worky Day!
