Edmund in Amstelland

Suddenly Edmund arrived in my place. This friendly Hippopotamus travels to many places, so I felt honoured to be his host now and to show him my country.

His adventures (well, just normal day things) you can find in the blog at the IUOMA group.



The little hippopotamus I created to send to Katerina Nikoltsou in Greece. Edmund happens to be there, too!

Bulbul

Pentekening, ingekleurd met aquarelverf, van een buulbuul (spreek uit: 'boelboel').
Ik heb 'm nog nooit in het echt gezien, maar zijn bijzondere zangstukken kun je op internet horen, onder andere hier, en hier zie je 'm stug doorfluiten terwijl een parkiet stoïcijns toehoort.

Pen drawing, coloured with water colour, of a bulbul. I've never seen this songbird in real, but you can hear his amazing voice on the internet, for instance here, and here you can see him whistling, while a parekeet seems to be listening stoically.
Sent to Esther in the USA.
