Monday Portraits began in May after the last squares as a way for me to keep the blog going whilst I took a break. Cee and Margaret encouraged me to keep it going through June, and amazingly it is still going today! Well I didn’t want this fellow to miss out from being part of Squares. I have even managed to include a real tree in the background to accompany this papier-mâché masterpiece. Perfect I thought for our final Monday of #TreeSquare. Do hope you have been having as much fun as I have this month.
If you have not yet had a chance to take part, you have until Saturday to submit your #TreeSquare. The only absolute rule for joining in with Squares is that your photograph must be square in shape! Although I’d love it if you also left a comment on my post, conversations make the challenge so much fun.

Loving the paper tree. What fun it must have been to make. Mine is the story of a lonely palm tree https://lizannelloyd.wordpress.com/2021/07/26/treesquare-photo-26/

Oh, how very fabulous. Where does this bit of enchantment hang out? I mean, I can see it’s Portugal, but ….
I’m still in Zaragoza, wondering how to cram the last few days of our holiday into the last few days of Squares: https://margaret21.com/2021/07/26/a-history-of-a-holiday-in-fifteen-trees-eleven/

Had me almost fooled. That’s an amazing bit of papier mache, and a very handsome bird. Just grabbing 5 minutes before everyone gets up. Have a lovely day!
