April 26

It's John James Audubon's birthday (he was born in 1785). What beautiful art he made.

Ooo, when I looked for some Audubon art, I ran across this beautiful blog!

And if you're in the mood, at least as I write this the Metropolitan Museum of Art's shop has some beautiful items based on his work. I found them again via a search at http://store.metmuseum.org .

It's also national Pretzel Day!
