A Crow, A Dog, and a Toolshed (not altogether)

Here is a crow that caught a small fish that I spotted at the Fill last Sunday:

And here is a totally random photo of Truman at Shoreview Park from last Saturday:

We have had gloriously warm sunny weather all week here.  At lunch time, as usual, I've gone outside to sketch.  Across the street from my building is a lovely spot -- the Medicinal Herb Garden, where I intended to draw a few plants in bloom.  But when I got there, my attention was instantly caught by a pair of brightly colored watering cans and wheelbarrow near a tool shed.  Prior to becoming an Urban Sketcher, I probably would have ignored them in favor of plants, as I was always very focused on nature -- drawing only birds, plants, and landscapes.  The Urban Sketching outings have been wonderful in opening my eyes to other possibilities.
