https://t.co/TTlUXBJAcD https://t.co/UkFWxXNTQ3 @fci_clare They didn’t make the cut, I’m afraid. Couldn’t include everyone 😥 My North American #RockMusic #painting is VERY NEARLY finished.

#workinprogress #rockandrollhalloffame #rock #music https://t.co/mYtbOvTWvO @alexillustrator Cripes! It's not looking good for your eagle.

#workinprogress #progrock #rockstars #RockOn #watercolour #handpainted https://t.co/t09aAyRZ3V @GeorgeB56814129 Have a splendid time, sounds like you deserve it. I’ve been twice, and would go again any time. Such fabulous birding everywhere, and if you need a rest day, you’ll see wonderful things in the hotel gardens. ...
I'm painting in a couple of figures from the cover of #Aerosmith's 1975 album 'Toys in the Attic' on my #map of North American #RockMusic.
This afternoon's soundtrack: #Rush.

*some years ago https://t.co/CeFTfa3FxB My North #American #rockmusic #map is filling up very nicely with good progress on the East coast & mid West. My next task is to paint in 1. a train song & 2. a cowboy song. It's taken a month for me & @MothClark to find the right #cowboysong!
#WorkinProgress https://t.co/U0HHVW6LSg @fci_clare No, I don’t feel much for kingy either. But whether we like it or not, he is our head of state and so he should go to represent us. @fci_clare I feel the same! The biggest issue the world faces, and he can’t be arsed. Disgraceful.

Lovely footage @OllyFrampton! @jawa998 @exitthelemming Luckily, the car belongs to the same person whose fence the bird is sleeping on! @CedarWych @exitthelemming That's what I wondered, Kingsley... @exitthelemming What a joy this afternoon to meet this bird, and to see you! 👍🙏
I put a nightJAR on my Bird Migration map (bottom left) - but never expected to see a nightHAWK.
Perhaps it's a reminder of the things we should truly value?
#MotherNature
Thx for the credit! X❤️ https://t.co/UMMtEJJXqo Extraordinary views of an extraordinary #bird this afternoon sleeping on a fence in #wantage, #oxfordshire. A North American common #Nighthawk. It’s pulled a large crowd of admirers!
