Off the easel: 'Across the Preselis, Pembrokeshire', 16x12inch, oil. A Welsh painting looking east across the Preseli mountains, here in Wales. In the distance Foel Drygarn and Frenni Fawr, two of Pembrokeshire National Park's most popular walking hills. chrischalkart.com/landscape-pain…

Don't look up. The Robin is the UK's national bird, both male and female Robins hold their own territories in the winter, and both sexes sing the same winter song. Robins were declared Britain's National Bird on December 15th, 1960. #birdwatching #birds #bird

Adding paintings to my website today, this painting is called 'Royal Fisherman'. How I do love painting kingfishers! 🎨

Today is the Leo New Moon, a true alignment of royalty, color, creativity, and stardom 🤩🥰🫶🌙

Royal Fisherman, oil - Surely the UK's most colourful birds, and one of my absolute favourites to paint. This is a local Kingfisher, seen at the Welsh Wildlife Center here in Pembrokeshire. #birds

We live in rural west Wales, most days we see foxes foraging or playing amongst the horses in the fields. Each year, in Spring, we watch as young playful cubs grow into bold teenagers, before dispersing in autumn, leaving the adults to start the cycle over again. #FoxOfTheDay

Ty'n Cornel, Cambrian Mountains, oil. In the beautiful Doethie valley, 7 miles from Llanddewi Brefi and high up in the Cambrian Mountains of mid Wales, sits the most remote hostel in Wales, and where the call of the red kite is still more common than the sound of the car. #WALES

Foxy Lady, oil - Like your own dog or cat, Foxes love to play; they’ve been seen stealing golf balls from golf courses to play with. They will play alone, but love to play with other foxes and other animals, even deer. #FoxOfTheDay

Flying-Fox. Foxes can run at about 30mph and jump over obstacles 2 meters tall. A fox’s bones are about 30% lighter than the same size bone of a domestic dog. One of my favourites photographs, sometimes it's not about sharpness. #fox #FoxOfTheDay

Buzzard painting on the easel. One of our most abundant large birds of prey, Buzzards have a piercing call, a large wingspan and beautiful copper plumage which changes colour with the seasons.

Unlike other members of the canine family, foxes are not considered to be pack animals. Foxes tend to live by themselves or in small family groups. Like you're own dog, foxes love to play, they will play alone, but also with other foxes and sometimes other animals.

Painting a magnificent wild red deer stag and two hinds. I was lucky enough to watch them for a few minutes at our Welsh Wildlife Centre, here in Cilgerran.
