There were more bunnies than usual & most were active, since the weather wasn't humid. I made sketches of several different individuals as they wiggled their whiskers at me.
My favorite thing to draw at the fair is the chickens, probably because their shapes are made up of triangles. I spend a long time in that building every year. The variations on a single species of bird is amazing and has produced some strange results. A small number of ducks and pigeons also reside in the back of the building, pretty in a less showy way.
The sheep are a sea of woolly placidity. I love the rams' curling horns, this year there were 4 of them. The all brown sheep look like live Easter candy. There was an ewe & 2 lambs and she continiually "baa-ed" as if to make certain everyone admired her fuzzy babies.
As the day wore on, I felt worse & I didn't even meet my sno-cone quota. I left earlier than usual, but spent a half hour in the grassy field trying to find my car, I was so disoriented. By sheer luck, the van full of adults that had parked next to me were leaving at the same time & guided me to my car. If it hadn't been for them, I might still be wandering around...
