Ended Official BYC Mini-Contest - What’s Your Hobby

[PioneerChicks]

I'm a birdwatcher!
I love being out in nature, it is my therapy (in addition to chicken keeping), and I learn something new each time! I enjoy the feeling of added a new species to my life list!
I get up early almost every morning to watch birds, even if it is freezing cold. I am not a morning person, so if you know me, this is a great sacrifice
I'm definitely better than I used to be! I'm a semi-expert in my area, but I love going on vacations to see new birds!

Everybody should birdwatch!

I doodle to relieve stress and meditate as well as create greeting cards for family and friends. I am a complete amateur but it is a wonderful way to stay focused and grounded in times of distress. ie....2020. The only sacrifice is my wallet! So many pens and pencils. I love to doodle whenever I can, which is quite a bit as I await back surgery.

I doodle to relieve stress and meditate as well as create greeting cards for family and friends. I also raise chooks lol

I love these!!!! Especially “breathe” and the flowers.



OH. Also. I think you’ve graduated from “doodles”. Here.... let me show you the extent of my art skills which are far more “doodle” like. I’ll even make a flower so we can compare.

I like to decorate cupcakes and cakes. I'm only a beginner, and I don't do it very often, though. I love being able to do whatever I want when decorating, being able to eye what looks good and wether to add more or stop.

Not an entry-

When I'm not quilting or sewing for clients and friends, and I'm not feeding the chickens....I like to make fun things as gifts. I'm happiest when I am puttering on my longarm sewing machine such as this pair of wall quilts called "Stitch Happens." Trying new things also interest me and I recently started making egg aprons.

So...what's your hobby?

Chickens are!

I desperately want to take up cookie decorating but I don’t think I have enough self control.

Hoping I’m inspired to a new hobby here in this thread!
