Belén of Arcilla Y Fuego sent her Drake Noir to live w/me in Toronto.

He was very nervous upon arrival & hid in the plants .

I took him walking in the alley. The art captivated him.

“Hey mom, look at me! I’m hangin’ in the alleys of TO with Resa! ”

LOL! As this slideshow reveals, we had a great day of muralling!
When we got home, Drake insisted on having shots taken on the floor I painted. He said I was an artist, too!

When I introduced Drake & mini-me, it was love at first sight! Here mini-me models a pin Belén designed. Drake flew over from Spain with it , as a gift for me.

You can visit Belén on her blog site –
Then drop by
Cerámica Belén Soto
OR
Artesanum
& do some shopping! I used my PayPal, but I see other forms of payment as well. Don’t worry about breakage, as Belén is a master at packing!

⭐ Le Drake Noir ⭐
As it was in Belén’s original Drake Noir Post this is dedicated to you!
Pics taken by Resa – September 2, 2015

P.S. When Drake met mini-me he played her a beautiful Spanish love song on the guitar!

Awww ! How lovely ! I visit Belén’s blog and I remember this little guy and, wow, he’s living with you now Resa. Lucky guy 😀
I love the floors. You are so talented dear friend.
Love Ralph xoxox ❤ #< #<
Thanks Ralph! This little Drake is absolutely adorable! He is a wonderful addition to my home! 😀 xoxo ❤ #<
I thought you should know dear Resa that this post is partly featured in my latest post which I’ve just published 😀 xoxo ❤ #<
xoxo: It’s a very cute post! I just commented, as I was busy making dinner & entertaining last night. I had to return a and read it again.
You’re very sweet to think of me & Jeep & johnny & oh yeah, my little black Drake! xoxo ❤ #<
Thanks for commenting Resa. Loved it, as I always do and your little family really enhanced the post. Thank you. xoxo ❤ #<
Ah, he looks so cute!!!! I follow her work and and I think that Drake and you are going to have a great time! Love your shots of him! 🙂 xxxx
Glad you like the shots, Marina! Yes, were are having a great time in Toronto. It was a long way for him to travel, but he got here perfect! 🙂 xxxx
Thanks Marina! …Drake is lucky to have met a new owner so lovely 🙂
🙂 She is!!! They are both very lucky! 🙂
Both you girls are very wonderful!
xxxxxxxx
xoxoxo
Yes, he looks so cute…
¡Es el sello de Belén! Las miradas cautivadoras
See you in Canada 🙂
Scarlet
Beautiful blue eyes! Thank you! 🙂
Gracias de nuevo Scarlet, eres un cielo!!!
Hope this little black fellow continues to behave exemplary – come on such a lucky fellow by traveling from Belén’s creative magical hands across the Atlantic over to Resa’s creative magical hands – definitely still in good hands – but keep him from the drums, otherwise the whole Toronto will be aware of the new inhabitant and end up sleepless… 😀
I don’t wonder at all that he immediately caught his attention on your beautiful floor and the attractive “little-me” too – it’s in the genes… 😀
So far he is perfectly behaved. He was tired from his long trip, but after 1 night was ready to see the sights of Toronto.
However, mini-me has already introduced him to the drums downstairs. We’ll have to see what happens. Maybe he’ll join the band! 😀
He loves all the art, and has moved in with mini-me. 😀
I agree with you, “definitely still in good hands”
Thanks Le Drake, “the original”
Tell Belen if he reproduces in Toronto, I want a chick!
“LOL” I’m sure you are first on the list!!! 😀
He is still too young to start a family … it’s a lot of responsibility for an adventurous duck 🙂 🙂
Thanks Cindy!!
Ah! Drake Noir – He is really something! 🙂
But be aware of chicks: “There can be only one” …in Toronto 🙂
The ceramic is also great ❤
🙂 Thanks Hanna! “lol” ❤
Reblogged this on Arcilla y fuego and commented:
En el inicio de su tradicional migración hacia lugares mas cálidos, Drake cometió un error al introducir las coordenadas en su GPS, ( le advertí que sus plumas son muy grandes para unas teclas tan pequeñas ) … y tras una gran aventura transoceanica, el ha llegado a Toronto, Canadá.
Todo mi agradecimiento para Resa, A Drake le encanta este nuevo hogar, sus ojos me dicen que el es muy feliz!!!
At the start of his traditional migration to warmer places, Drake made a mistake when entering the coordinates in your GPS (I warned him that their feathers are too big for such small keys) … and after a transoceanic adventure, has come to Toronto, Canada.
All my thanks to Resa, Drake loves this new home, your eyes tell me that he is very happy !!!
Aww, thank you and many kisses! I am very happy Drake has made it to Toronto in good health. He is settled in very nicely & mini-me is very smitten with him.! 🙂 xo
He is a young duck eager to learn new things, like all teenagers 🙂
All my followers agree that it is a very lucky duck !!
A hug for both.
Thanks a million!!! The post is wonderful, I love it :))
You’re the best Resa.
Big hugs.
You are so welcome! What fun I’m having. Your creations are wonderful, and this little Black Drake is sooo adorable! He looks so sweet in my home! Big Hugs to you, too!
It was a wonderful day, full of art and new places, I feel a little envious of our lovely duck 🙂
Happy weekend to all!!
Sorry to use your blog for my comments and gratefulness, I feel like in my own home, writing here and there 😉
Belén, you are in your own home here!
You are more than welcome to comment, & I know Drake is happy that you do.
I love him a lot.
I understand it is still difficult for him to leave the original nest, not just for the duckling, but for the parent.
He is very loved & I promise he will have the best home..well, mini-me has already taken care of that.
They are truly in love, and are planning a future together.
Hugs & Kisses – Resa
Thanks Resa, he is an extrovert duck … and is in the best hands, by the way, Drake has become a popular duck in Vigo, many people have read about his adventures!!!
Tell him, sure he likes to know 😉
Hugs & Kisses
Ah, Vigo looks very beautiful! 🙂 When I finally get the nerve to fly over the ocean, I will make Vigo a destination!
So, little Drake is happy to hear everyone knows of his adventure. He likes being popular. 😉
Hugs and kisses to you, Belén, from me & Drake
Here’s your house, Drake knows the way 😉 … we are happy to receive!!
HUGS!
Belén. Me encanta ese viaje de DraKe. Quiero volár con el hacia ti, me vuelvo diminuto y me agarro en alguna de sus plumas.
Me encanta este comentario. Un muy feliz que hayas venido para una visita. Drake es feliz, también!
_Resa
Hola Guillermo, yo no dudaría en acurrucarme entre sus alas y dejar que me transportase hacia nuevas tierras, me conformo con vivir la aventura a través de los ojos de Drake…
Un abrazo.
Qué buen regalo… Y en qué buenas manos lo dejaste… Ahora va a hablar en Castellano, Inglés y Francés 🙂 Un abrazo, Belén. Aquileana 😀
Ha mejorado mucho su Inglés, (es imprescindible en sus vuelos por el vecindario) … realmente está en muy buenas manos, con Resa las aventuras están aseguradas 🙂 🙂
es un pato con mucha suerte.
Muchas gracias y otro abrazo para ti!!
Jejeje! … Muy bueno!… Otro abrazo. Aquileana 😉
Drake es una monada…
Lo quiero mucho!
Drake es muy adorable. ¡ Estoy tan feliz que vivir en mi casa.
Muchas gracias A.!! Drake no quiso que lo acompañase, yo se lo propuse, pero estos patos adolescentes y sus ansias de independizarse … no fue posible.
Es muy afortunado y va a ser muy feliz con Resa.
Abrazos!
De nada!
Drake is very independent. He takes mini-me on flights over Toronto to show her how beautiful it is.
“lol” He is a bit of a show off! She is crazy about him.
Abrazos!
Ha, i love this bird. She’s everywhere.
It’s adorable! And you are right, this bird gets around! 🙂
Thanks Michael!! … and thanks Resa 🙂
He’s fabulous!! I can’t wait to meet him in person!! I hope Jeep won’t be too jealous 😉
Jeep likes Drake, but I suggest Drake should not….. I repeat …not …. sleep on your suitcase or on the special chair beside your chair.
Lucky you, Resa!… I hope your new buddy is doing well over there… And you too, my friend . Love! Aquileana 😀
Thank you, Aquileana! I adore my new buddy, and he is doing well. Best to you, too! 😀 (Drake is just the cutest thing!)
