Nearly Finished

I know, it's not exactly early in the week as promised but I really had hoped to be further along with this before I posted the newer photos. So that said, here it is as it stands right now. The tail fin is nearly finished! More to come in the next few weeks or there abouts.

this is the tail fin. On my screen the colors look a bit darker then in actuality.

Still here moving slow

everything is moving right along.

the pond is full of life

the maiden and the trout is progressing ever so slowly but it is progressing. I will post photos early next week.

CICADAS

What a face! those eyes! The invasion begins..

The cicadas have arrived. They are here in large numbers.

Emerging from their shells and clinging to the grass and leaves of trees.

The noise is deafening. Thankfully this only happens once every 17 years!
