53. Animal
There are no plants without animals, and no animals without plants. Yep, we’re all in the lumpy, bumpy soup of life together. This month we’re exploring the relationship between feathers, fur, skin and scales and foliage, bark, flowers and photosynthesis. We’re talking wasps and orchids, dogs and plants, keeping animals away and drawing them in and all sorts of other animalistic ideas. Woof woof.
