Hyenas!

I love hyenas! They are smart, go against 'traditional' social sets ups, have amazing biology and the cleanest teeth you will ever see on an animal. So if you want to see some lovely photos of them, with an explanation of the work the Michigan State University team does with the information they gain from their studies, take a look at the BBC's photo feature. You can also find the MSU Hyena Research blog here.

Bargain art

I have just poster two new pieces of art on my Etsy store - Napoleon the puffin and the badger and bee above, otherwise known as Friends on a Summer Evening. You'll possibly recognise the two pieces from my Art Wanted widget at the bottom of the page. I discovered that I had alot of art sitting in a folder never seeing the light of day. Why not try putting them on Etsy, I thought. Well, last month I sold four pieces that way so I will be posting a few more pieces during February at reduced prices in the hope that people will want to pick up a bargain. I hope you will find something you like.
