Haskins Park, Rockport, MA. I also took a couple of photos of the cones etc., hoping an app will tell me the species.
I had been drawing the reeds in Mill Pond Park (right) when I heard a plop and saw this frog. They stayed there for a long time, even when I cautiously moved right to the edge and drew them (left).
More reeds. I’m fascinated by the patterns of their reflections, even before adding those of the clouds and trees.
Not Rockport. A beloved tree on the opposite coast, between the retreat center of Villa Maria del Mar and the ocean in Santa Cruz, CA, drawn several weeks ago.

All in my 5×7 sketchbook in graphite.
