🌿 I've taken up birding, in all the ways.
Although I enjoy photographing and drawing my new feathered friends, I've discovered a shortcut for journaling.
Hero Arts makes a delightful set of three bird stamps. I just change their coloring based on whomever I see while hiking each day.
Fun fact: Hero Arts wood stamps are made in the USA by a family business using FSC-certified North American maple from sustainably-managed forests.
