Day 28: Fallen Baby Bird, 14x11"

This is my homage to all of the baby birds that have fallen far from their nests. Even though your lives were short, you made my heart happy and I think of you often.

I came across this photo in a most random way. The photographer said he found this little guy in the middle of the sidewalk. After taking his picture he scooped him up and set him near a tree. Near a tree, huh? I sure hope the tree trunk elevator is in working order today cause that is the only way this dude is getting to the top.

I am not here to judge but the words under this original photo were empty. I can't help but think of what happened to this little guy. Was he scared as he craned his neck to watch the people as they passed by?

Day 12

I thought I would try something different. I've never sketched/painted a migration pattern. A more detailed series would be fun I do believe.

Project IV Day 5: Little Auk

Little Auks are indeed little. They are round with sweet short bills. One day I shall hold one in the palm of my hand...

Project IV Day 18: Turkey Vulture (again)

I can't stop with the Turkey Vultures. I think I might have been one in a past life. Is that why I'm such a dirtbag ?
