All around the barnyard
The animals are fast asleep.
Sleeping cows and horses,
Sleeping pigs and sheep.
Here comes the cocky rooster
To sound his daily alarm.
"Cock-a-doodle-doo!
Wake up sleepy farm!"

This is one of Solly's roosters again, with the mother of the previous little chicks I posted. I did the sketch of her some time ago, and just now decided to add her rooster in watercolour - he was good enough to stroll past a couple of weeks ago, and I managed to get a quick (partial!) sketch of him before he disappeared around the corner! the rest of him was left up to my imagination.
Oh, Maree-- I just lo-ove his tail feathers!

And he REALLY does have a beautiful bunch Annie! I see you're also a Taurus, my birthday is in May!
ReplyDeleteRoosters with their floppy combs and wattles and tail feathers have an entertaining body language. And yes, we are both Taurus-- tauri too.

They certainly do have Annie, and their eyes are so expressive!
ReplyDeleteI sooo love your free strokes!
