Birds and Exercise

From April 15 to June 15, I was fully committed to a daily exercise routine.  It was a great experience, but then I fell right off the bandwagon.  Now I'm back to going for a walk or two a day.  I like running (somewhat), but I love walking.

Last night on my walk, there was a little red finch who joined me for part of the route.  He was about 3 feet in front of me, hopping along.  Then a car drove by us, and he flew away.  I went for a walk this morning and saw him in the very same spot!  Hop, hop, hopping along.

I'm attempting to learn to draw.  I tried to draw my little birdy friend last night.  But when I saw him this morning, I realized it is his head that has a red patch, not his chest.

I experienced art classes in elementary, but my drawing and painting skills didn't develop much past that level.  I wish I would have kept taking classes, but I didn't.  It's never too late to start learning, right?  Maybe someday I'll take a class at the local community college!  That would be a fantastic experience.  In the meantime, I have a few "Learn how to Draw" style books, and they are enjoyable.

Have a wonderful week!  Let's never stop learning, okay?
