I love the Pollinator Plan too... there are some incredibly inspiring people involved which is always heartening to see.

I am so proud of you being so involved with the protection (and propagation!) of pollinators. I hope you are proud too. The Plan sounds wonderful and I'm glad to hear of it.

You work fairly upright too- I admire your ability to stand as you paint. It's great to have so many things to look forward to. I'm going to be busy!shevaunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08210683459670654254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7603463878349085244.post-1436360605135709212015-07-25T16:04:41.224+01:002015-07-25T16:04:41.224+01:00Welcome back!
