Another Snow Bird

Yesterday was the first official day of Spring. It was sunny in the mid 40s and my sons and I cleaned up the grounds here. I thought we were finally done with winter, but sure enough it snowed this morning. I dragged out another old painting of a starling lost in the winter.

Winter is Still Here

Just when it seemed like Spring was here, we got a few more inches of snow. I found this painting from a few years ago in storage. Three Starlings are shown foraging for food in the snow.

Snow in March

Took a walk in the woods before work yesterday. It snowed Friday night and I wanted to take some shots before it all melted. I figure there may not be much more snow coming my way with Spring on the way. As a subject, I like the high contrast of wet dark trees against a backdrop of white snow. It's almost as close as you can come to a pen and ink drawing in nature.
