Hi Everybody!
Today i have a colourful, good weather owl to share, inspired by a LB lesson from Tamara. I am linking to Chris' all sorts of weather challenge at AJJ. The owl was painted with water-colours. Many of you will not have seen such colourful owls, but this is another of the exclusive species who thrive here in Balconia-by-the- Rhine. Perhaps you can think of a name for this owl?

OMG, that owl is totally fabulous 👌
ReplyDeleteHugs, RO
Thanks Ro! Hugs!
DeleteLove the owl, maybe it is a rare Autumnal owl, seen only as the trees change colour and as winter steals in?? Lol!!
ReplyDeleteThat could be a reason! I'll keep my eyes open, the leaves are almost gone, so I might just see it!
DeleteFabulous owl art!
ReplyDeleteAmazing photographs vj., especially i like the moon closeup!
Thanks, the moon is always so beautiful!
DeleteAnother sparkling post. Is she not the lesser-spotted princess turquoise toes? However, "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" V xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Vee, that#s a great name, love it! have a great day!
DeleteThat is ONE COLORFUL owl. Very cute. I bet it even glows in the dark.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos today of the sky and contrails. Last year at this time, very few people were flying.
Loved the Bed and Breakfast. Cute. Hope you are feeling better, dear.
Thanks E, I will have to creep out after dark and see if it glows in the dark, who knows? Still feeling bad!
DeleteHi Val, good morning! Hope your fingers are not so painful.is your blood pressure getting better? Your owl is wonderful,she is lovely. I would call her Owlula!Have a great day, hugs from us all, Sarah
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah. BP still high. Glad you like the owl, and Owlula is a wonderful name! Hugs to all!
DeleteAbsolutely fabulous post. Great colours, image and brilliantly designed. x
ReplyDeleteThanks Annie!
DeleteI am quite sure, Valerie, that this is the Rainbow Owl, hitherto thought to be extinct, but now rediscovered in Balconia-by-the-Rhine, by that famous sleuth, Dr All-wise Jael Tups. Its scientific name, as I understand it is under discussion, since it does not fit nearly into current taxonomy, but Bubo muilticolorus seems to be the odds on favourite for the moment. It is an owl for its time and those believing in divine providence will no doubt herald its appearance as a commemoration of the various rainbow coalitions around the world celebrating everything from skin colour to sexual orientation. It is an omen, a portent, almost a phoenix arising from the ashes. What a great service you are providing here by depicting it in all its mutl-hued splendour. I am a little concerned that only a single female has been discovered, and unless pathogenesis can occur, it seems to be on a one track journey back to oblivion. Perhaps this is an example of a species showing reversed sexual dimorphism, with the male being dull and inconspicuous. There is much yet to be discovered. We will be checking your posts for additional news. With awe, respect and hugs and kisses, your acolyte across the water. David
ReplyDeleteHi David, thanks for the smiles, I needed them today! May I use your comment in a future blogpost? I will definitely keep my eyes open and try to find a fitting male, but this might be the first hint of females taking over the world!? What an exciting breakthrough that would be! This female is far from taking over the world, she is just happy to sit in a chair by the radiator and keep warm today, let's hope things will be better tomorrows! Have a lovely day, dear David, take care! Hugs to you and Miriam!
DeleteYou may use my comment any way you see fit, Valerie. Stay warm. I hope things will improve for you soon. David xo
DeleteThanks David, much appreciated! xoxoxoxoxo

Thanks Chrissy, haVE A GREAT DAy!
DeleteYour owl is fantastic Valerie. I think she looks very peaceful and happy living at Balconia by the Rhine. I love the colors you used. Hope your week is going well. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks Erika! Have a great week! hugs!
DeleteWell, she's definitely a Balconia Beauty and I am so happy she is putting in an appearance at Art Journal Journey - Thank you. What wonderful photos - I must say the sunrise ones are my favourites. Hugs, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris, sunrise is always wonderful!
DeleteNot checked for the colours but I think she is something to do with a rainbow and definitely a Queen or a Princess. On the other hand it could be a King or Prince as it is usually the male species who is flamboyantly dressed. Whatever the name I think it is a magnificent painting, I love both the owl and the background.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Neet xx
ps great photos too x
Such a beautiful owl, so colourful. The name Rainbow Owl or Jewelled Owl came to mind.
ReplyDeleteReally enjoyed your photographs.
Sending lots more healing wishes.
All the best Jan
