New season and new egg at SWFL eagles

Harriet has laid the first egg of the 2021-2022 season at the Southwest Florida Bald Eagle nest, at 15:48:56 EST yesterday. Looking forward to another successful season of eaglet-raising.

Yes, that.

WIP stages for the tiny skull making an appearance in my recent raptor toy figure photoshoot.

 

Light grey and black polymer clay, and aluminum foil, later also joined by liquid polymer clay. I'm using a silicon "brush" tool, a sewing pin, a small craft blade, and a loop of wire, and sculpting on a glass photo frame and baking paper.

RaptorCon 2021

I put one together last year and had fun taking pictures of my raptor toy figures interacting, so let's do that again! This year's con doubles as a Halloween party, and triples as a birthday party.

Welcome, scalies, featherfloofs, and all those inbetween!

 

Or outside of that spectrum, I suppose, as our two organizers are, fittingly for the theme of the evening, skeletons.
