Here is an iguana just trying to escape the heat. I saw lots of iguanas today, running all over Crandon Gardens (Key Biscayne) looking as healthy as ever.

Here is a sneak preview of one of the paintings that will be in my second children’s book about Jimmy, the Wallaby. Jimmy is the older brother of Wally B. After reading the book about Wally B (due out next week so stay tuned…), some asked what happens with Jimmy? And this will be the book about Jimmy.

Jimmy, the Wallaby, tries to ski. This was done with a few markers on a piece of watercolor paper. Sometimes, it’s just fun to grab some markers and doodle…
Some people have asked me what happens to Wally B’s brother, Jimmy after Jimmy is so helpful to his younger brother. Well, stay tuned, because Jimmy just may get his own spin-off story!

During today’s morning walk in Crandon Gardens, I see these bright yellow flowers enjoying spring time. Who doesn’t?
Here we see a very green, practically neon green, iguana. He is just looking at me wondering what will be my next move. I take his photo, admiringly, and then walk on and he scurries off into more of the foliage. This is a Key Biscayne resident.
Finally, I got to see a blue jay during my morning walk. These guys are always flitting about so to get them to stay still long enough for a photo was not easy. But here he is looking for his next stop!
Suddenly, I look and see these pretty white flowers growing in the wild. They look as though they are snow flakes and yet they are soaking in 75 degree spring Florida weather.
