Terracotta, reflected

Color... thinks by itself, independently of the object it clothes.

Charles Baudelaire


Terracotta, ORIGIN early 18th cent.: from Italian terra cotta, baked earth, from Latin terra cocta.


My morning was not as expected. My niece had car trouble, battery and a bad power line or something of that sort. The car had to be towed to a service center. So, I drove her to work and ended up doing all my errands before my blip. Not as many creatures stirring after noontime, but I tempted a catbird with blueberries. Well, actually she arrived and forced me to go get the blueberries, I guess we have open lines of communication now. The terracotta saucer I use to hold the berries, peanuts and seeds reflected so beautifully on her feathers. The saucer itself is visible in her dark eye. But, don't you just love her whiskers?
