The closest thing I found to baseball this Spring is this Baltimore Oriole. It’s also the first time seeing this orange bird in person – as a result of its unique call and bright flash of orange. It stays busy eating the budding fruit off the trees and also the oranges slices and grape jelly from the feeder.
Patio Life is exhibiting at 3S Artspace in Portsmouth, NH (closed until further notice). The exhibit features over 20 large format reproductions of insects, a 6 foot wide map of where the insects were photographed and the book, Patio Life.
