Pinus canariensis The Canary Island pine is capable of rising from the ashes like a phoenix. Formerly, due to its valuable tea wood, the man exploited the pine forests, but today they are mainly used for recreation.
Pinus canariensis
El pino canario es capaz de resurgir de las cenizas al igual que un ave fénix. Antiguamente, debido a su valiosa madera de tea, el hombre explotó los pinares, pero hoy en día sirven principalmente para la recreación.
Bleu et or pour l'un, rouge et or pour l'autre. Je continue mes "essais "
A venir : 1 rouge et 1 noir avec des pigments plus opacifiants....
I still have a backlog of photos from the last three years and I'd like to get some of them on here along with some new pics.
This is photo is of a string of wood resin dripping down, it looks to me me like artisan jewelry!
all in their shiny red glory
I'm using a new mold shape now and it's yielding MUCH more precise masks.
El trepador canadiense / Red-breasted Nuthatch (Sitta canadensis), también conocido como sita de pecho rojo, es un ave pequeña y activa, famosa por su capacidad de caminar por los troncos de los árboles con la cabeza hacia abajo.
Familia
* Clasificación científica: Pertenece a la familia Sittidae (nutrias o trepadores) y al orden Passeriformes.
* Género: Sitta. Es la única especie de trepador en Norteamérica que posee una marcada línea negra a través del ojo.
Hábitat
* Entorno principal: Habita principalmente en bosques de coníferas (piceas, abetos, pinos y cedros).
* Distribución: Se encuentra en Alaska, Canadá y el norte/oeste de los Estados Unidos.
* Migración irruptiva: En inviernos donde escasean las semillas en el norte, migran masivamente hacia el sur, llegando incluso a zonas de México y apareciendo en parques urbanos y jardines.
Alimentación
* Dieta: En verano se alimenta mayoritariamente de insectos y arañas. En invierno, su dieta cambia a semillas de coníferas.
* Comportamiento de forrajeo: Buscan comida en las ramas y troncos. Tienen el hábito de "almacenar" semillas en las grietas de la corteza para consumirlas más tarde.
* Comederos: Son visitantes frecuentes de comederos artificiales, donde prefieren las semillas de girasol, el sebo (suet) y los cacahuetes.
Nidificación
* Cavidades: Es de las pocas aves (aparte de los carpinteros) capaz de excavar su propio nido en madera blanda o en descomposición, aunque también utiliza huecos abandonados.
* Defensa con resina: Tienen un comportamiento único: recubren la entrada del nido con resina pegajosa de pino para disuadir a los depredadores. Para entrar sin pegarse, los adultos vuelan directamente al centro del agujero.
* Reproducción: La hembra suele poner de 5 a 8 huevos. Ambos padres se encargan de alimentar a los polluelos, que abandonan el nido entre 18 y 21 días después de la eclosión.
=====ENGLISH=====
The Red-breasted Nuthatch (Sitta canadensis) is a small, energetic songbird distinguished by its blue-gray upperparts, rusty-cinnamon underparts, and a sharp black stripe through the eye bordered by a white stripe above it.
Family
* Scientific Classification: It belongs to the family Sittidae (nuthatches) and the order Passeriformes.
* Genus: The genus name Sitta is derived from the Ancient Greek word for the Eurasian Nuthatch.
* Related Species: It is closely related to other North American species like the White-breasted, Pygmy, and Brown-headed nuthatches.
Habitat
* Primary Habitat: They mainly inhabit coniferous forests, preferring trees such as spruce, fir, pine, hemlock, and western red cedar.
* Range: Their breeding range spans across Canada, Alaska, and the northern and western United States.
* Adaptability: During "irruptive" winters when northern seed crops fail, they may migrate as far south as northern Mexico and can be found in orchards, parks, and deciduous woods.
Feeding
* Diet: Their diet is seasonal. In summer, they eat primarily insects and spiders; in winter, they switch to conifer seeds.
* Behavior: They are famous for foraging head-down on tree trunks and large branches.
* Caching: They often "scatterhoard" food, wedging seeds or insects into bark crevices for later consumption.
* Backyard Feeders: They readily visit feeders for sunflower seeds, suet, and peanuts.
Nesting
* Cavity Nesting: They are among the few non-woodpeckers that can excavate their own nest cavities in soft, dead wood (like rotten aspen), though they occasionally use old woodpecker holes.
* The Resin Defense: A unique behavior involves smearing conifer resin around the entrance hole of the nest, which is believed to deter predators or competitors. They avoid the sticky substance by diving directly into the hole.
* Reproduction: Females typically lay 5 to 8 eggs. Both parents feed the young, which fledge about 18–21 days after hatching.

Poudre de pigments caméléons dans le fond et inclusions dans résine transparente
Le rendu n'est pas super car dû aux paillettes des pigments ainsi qu'à la brillance de la résine
Difficile de rendre la couleur exacte qui est un joli violet bleu à cause de la brillance !
J' ai donc coulé une première couche de résine translucide et attendu une dizaine d'heures avant d'ajouter une autre couche teintée d'encre à alcool de couleur purple. Puis j'ai ajouté quelques taches d'encre purple et du blanc, à l'aide d'un bâtonnet, j'ai étiré ces taches en arabesque et laissé la résine travailler et sécher durant 24 h. J'ai alors collé mes petits sujets découpés dans du papier épais doré à l'aide d'une matrice , quelques fines paillettes d'or et coulé une couche de résine translucide. Pour qu'elle soit vraiment dure, il faudra encore une semaine de séchage.
Si vous avez des conseils pour ce genre de capture en brillance, je suis preneuse !
Merci à tous de vos visites, je vous souhaite une agréable soirée. Amicalement,
Well that’s my title, rather than the sculptor’s. His (he being Malcolm West) is Tango Appacianato and was on display in the woodland garden of the Landmark Arts Centre in Teddington, west London – part of their Summer Salon exhibition in 2020.
This beautiful sculpture, made from bronze resin, is full length and on a plinth (my photograph is just a detail), and is yours for just £3,350.

Copal or Copal is a collective term for various tree resins botanical origin, which are used as incense and for high-quality paints and varnishes.
Heriades sp. from Angelina County, Texas.
Instead of using leaves, resin bees use plant resin to partition their nest chambers. They have a long, slender look and their abdomens often appear to curl downwards. There are only a few species in the eastern U.S., however they are very difficult to separate. They are fairly common in our garden, and I've observed them on a variety of plant genera including Amorpha, Liatris, Rudbeckia, and Passiflora.
