  3. Oh SO pretty Marianne. Love your moon mandalas.

    It sure has the coloring of an oriole but not sure they are in Arizona so I am thinking Cactus Wren. Whatever he is, he is wonderful.

  10. maybe it's a fagarwi bird, marianne. you know, the birds that get themselves lost and you can here them in the distance announcing, we're the fagawi!

    forgive me. i couldn't resist. :)

    your watercolors always soothe me, marianne. and today i heard the best news--something about mid august and running toward someone with open arms.

  14. Liebe Marianne.... I was going to guess a Woodpecker....I think I have seen them in New Mexico....

    No matter...he is gorgeous...as is the cactus and our beloved Moon.

    Speaking of GORGEOUS things.....I just received a LOVELY packet full of all sorts of magical treasures... I'm posting about it later today....but first, I had to say Du bist eine kleine Teufelin!
    Etwas kommt Deine Weg bald...

    Ich liebe alles was Du geschickt hattest!

    Liebe Grusse zu Du, Sjimmie und alle die schone Tiere!
