Is it just me or do the hedgehogs look Vulcan?

I have put up a new header for spring, since it has finally arrived on the east coast (more or less). If this were an accurate depiction of this spring, it would just be blue. For water. Because we have been having some kind of freak monsoon. That certainly would have been easier. You would think by now I could draw a hedgehog. They have a simple shape and all you really need to recognize one is its little upturned nose. But I had a dreadful time creating anything that didn't look like an ROUS. And now when I look at it, I realize I got the ears wrong somehow. Perhaps I should add in a tag line about living long and prospering. At least they lean towards Vulcan and not Ferengi.

Perhaps just a little bit... Maybe if you rounded their ears a smidgen. Or you could just leave them as they are and let people wonder...

In either case, I like the new header, especially how the flowers go from open to closed on the moon side of the page.

I like it! I think it makes them quaint. They are attentive!!

LOL. "Attentive." That is just right.
