Wild Rainbows

[leelastarsky]

Wednesday morning, I was woken at about 5.30am by the Dawn Chorus. I heard the rainbows launch from their nightly roost and fly over our house in one giant, joyous flock. Then, just before they were out of earshot, the flock turned and swung back over the other side of our house.  They do this morning and night, and it fills me with so much happy hearing and seeing this! I can't tell you how lucky I feel. :~) 

It's what inspired my very first sketch for the EMG sketchfest, cos that was what was going on right outside my window!
That sketch is now a WIP painting!  (almost finished!!)


Then last night I managed to catch a bit of the evening version, and wanted to share...
