Seventeenth Page Spread in Roz's 2011 Fake Journal

Click on the image to view an enlargement.
Above, the seventeenth page spread in my 2011 fake journal. Just a quick word of explanation since the scan doesn't show it—the light green in the background is sparkly! Since the text was written rather small, here it is typed:

4.17.2011
2 p.m. Como

Later, at 6:30 p.m. on our walk, watching Turkey Vultures soar, scratching on the limited lift over the E.R. Flats ridge.


B: Turkey vultures are a pretty  bird.
T: No I think they are an ugly bird.
B: Maybe their face but they have a very pretty wing from underneath.
T: No, not their face. They are a scruffy, ugly bird. You're a ginger who wore a green suit. Stylistically your opinions don't count for much.
B: [uncontrollable laughter, per usual.]

  2. Freebird, that's not a vulture. Those are all Blackfooted Penguins at the Como Zoo. The vulture's were sighted later. Roz

  3. Aha! So you observe vultures in "real" life, too. :-) Don't know if you saw my most recent PJI, but I sketched you watching vultures fly in to roost for the night on my "fake" island in my "fake" journal, of course. (It was a sight I experienced my "real" self and it made a huge and beautiful impression on me.)

  4. Lol, I can see that now! Thanks for pointing out my mistaken identity. They still look nice!

  5. Freebird—I'm glad you still like these birds. I have to draw a turkey vulture sometime!
