This post is a loving tribute to all Rhinos.
RHINOS
Gigi made Rhinos for Holly, Beth and Resa. Aren’t they beautiful? They each got to name their own Rhino.
They decided their Rhinos should meet for a playdate in a Flower Fairy Garden.
Of course, where there are flowers, there are butterflies. Hello, Butterfly Boa Lady here! Like me, the Rhinos will be adored by all butterflies.
Resa horned in with a little fun with Beth’s fun.
Resa scouted the garden, to make sure there were more than enough flowers for the Rhino’s, and that there would be plenty left for fairies and butterflies.
Resa photographed this beautiful Rhino & Waterbirds mural in 2014. It’s since been demolished, but if you click on the pic, you can visit the post
Thank you for for taking the time to enjoy our Rhinos Playdate Scrapbook!
Georgiann – Rethinking Life for the gorgeous drawings of Runway, Rosy & Roland

Brilliant, lovely, cool, playful and fun post! Well done all the collaborators and BIG love to the rhinos 🙂 🙂 🙂
Thank you so much, TVTA! It’s one of those sudden inspiration posts. It all started with a story of Gi’s that has Rhinos in it. Well, one Rhino led t another………… 😀 😀 😀
All great poetry, beautiful and fun rhino sketches and wonderful butterfly boa mural. That’s so sad the rhino/water foul mural was demolished.
Thanks Timothy! It was a sudden inspiration type post. Rhinos are like eating peanuts, it’s hard to stop after just one! 😀
Yeah, I miss that mural. I would pass by it once a month or so. At least I have it recorded here.
A profound reminder to care and value all creatures who share our planet.
Agree! Think I’ll work animals into more posts! I really do adore them!!
you are brilliant and I love this so so so much!
Thank you, Beth! The poems are wonderful, and Roland is a dream!

The Rhinos are sweet and they deserve the spotlight, as do the ladies you’ve so magnificently mentioned in this post, Resa!
Thank you, Christy! The animals need as much help as possible!
These rhinos are absolutely gorgeous Resa. Would you consider making a whole line of rhino gowns?
I think that it would be very unwise to criticise a rhino’s choice of skirt, don’t you ? 🦏🙄💖 xoxoxo
Resa, this is absolutely wonderful. It’s just perfect. Delightful and full of whimsy. The mural is amazing and so beautiful. I love this very much. Thank you for all your had work. Thank you, thank you, thank you. ❤
Gi, Thank you for myRhino! I just adore her. ❤

Dear Resa, I love this, you’ve done such a lovely job of putting this together. The murals are amazing ! Thank you for including me, it’s so beautiful!
I’ve shared this at House of Heart. ❤
It’s so nice to each have our own Rhino! Thank you for sharing, and for contributing to the Rhinos’ Playdate! ❤
❤️
Rhino parties at your place are the best! 🤩
Thank you!!! We have duck parties, cat parties, butterfly parties and I’m looking to expand the list! 🤩🤩🤩
I think you have discovered the secret to a happy life. The more we celebrate life and our flora and fauna, the happier we become. It’s no wonder I always catch a smile when I visit. 😁
Aww, thank you!
Although, we should not spoil our pets.
…What? Commmming! I have to go! Jeep wants her pillow fluffed! 😀
Waaaa haaaa haaaa! Jeep is lucky to have you and I’m sure pillow fluffing is a labor of love. 😄
What??? Coming!! Dinner time!
Lovely rhino fantasy! 🙂
Yeah, having lots of fun! 😀
What a fun post!
Thank you! I had fun making it with my pals!
This was absolutely enchanting!
Dale.. Thank you! I think it’s a charming post, and that is largely due to the drawings and poetry.
I’ve been away on Art Gowns. LOL, I made aa Art Gown for Barbie out of a Schiaparelli tie. It’s been a busy post!
I loved the drawings of the Rhinos, the poetry is beautiful. The slideshow of the image’s of the flowers were neat, they were beautiful colors.
Beautiful tribute, Resa. Wish people leave the animals alone.
That rhino and waterbirds one should be in a ruddy art gallery somewhere!
IKR! …but they tore it down!
if you want a fight bring it….
Well, I didn’t tear it down. Maybe it was… Arnie. He could do that. 5, 6 swoops, tops!
Look, woman! I’m a Manc. You don’t mess with Mancs. Just look at… Robert Shaw from Jaws. He was from Westhoughton! And I bet Quint would beat your ass! Or arse. Whichever you want, madam, I’d go with arse! But then I am British.
WTM?
You’ll not catch me for the bumblebee!
Still….????
There’s actually a wasp’s nest just outside from my flat, which I avoid. But the bumblebee is Manchester’s symbol, I’ll have you know. Literally, it’s the city’s mascot type thing.
So… I’m in, in Manchester?
Whenever you see a bee, yes.
Good!
Merde,
Thank you for this wonderful collection! its amazing. Best wishes, Michael
I adore these drwaings. Have a fab weekend, Michael!
The Rhinos are beautiful creatures and deserve so much attention and the drawings are incredible. 🙂
The poem is my favorite and touched my heart.
We must strive to help animals. BILLIONS are slaughtered each year for food. I’m sickened.
You are a sweet sensitive person, and I know you will help.
Please write a poem for them!
I may or may not have a poem about Rhinos. I’ll check and if I don’t…then I will try my best to write a poem about them. I’ll have to watch some documentaries.
Rhinos are beautiful and adorable creatures of our planet. They need to survive and strive.
Love your posts. I will try to come more often… have a great week.
You too! Whether it’s a week or weekend, please enjoy!!!
Yes ma’am. Will do.
Loved the Play date Resa.. and so enjoyed your enchanting flowers in your garden for fairies and butterflies.. Have a wonderful rest of the week.. ❤ Much love ❤
Sometimes I feel like a big kid out here! You are so sweet, Sue. That should be your nickname…Sweet Sue!
Thank you Resa.. for that lovely compliment.. 🙂
Awesome post! Very interesting.
