I enjoyed taking the time to contemplate my surroundings. This was a good lesson in how to get the most from your time outdoors.

1. The shape came easily, but the markings and feathering was difficult. Hard to capture enough detail. 2. I might not have noticed the difference between the clear yellow of the head and face and the greenish gray of the shoulder area. I might not have been able to fully appreciate the brown streaks on the lower body or the softness of the feathering around the legs.

I liked a lot of the elements in various journals: the idea of capturing birds' general shapes in brief sketches, the one where plants kind of spill out of boxes on the page, the way the one woman did several dates on one page and shaded them so nicely (she was also such an accomplished artist -- the drawings were gorgeous), the idea of capturing your thoughts, experiences during the time you are sketching, including the date and location.
