I stopped by Magnolia Pearl, a beautiful shop just east of Fredericksburg, Texas. I found this just off the front porch: an old pickup truck converted into a chicken coop. I didn’t see any chickens, though.

The bluebird was hanging out around its nesting box in the early morning. I was waiting for it with my camera. I think it’s sitting on a rain gauge.

Our homework assignment for Week 5 in the Natural History Illustration 101 course was to submit an outline sketch of a mammal and to provide a few sketches of a bird. I chose these two subjects because I have good photographs of them.
