Winter Robins and Squirrels



My heart goes out to the robins and other wildlife
who are enduring this very cold and snowy winter.







This particular squirrel is very inquisitive
and persistent in attempts to get the
sunflower seeds inside a squirrel proof cage.

A Discovery


Such a cold day but sunny and clear...
we were out looking at nature and I thought I saw
something way out on the rocks... thinking perhaps 
it was a bird.

When enlarging my  photo I discovered this:

 
a lovely seal sunning himself!

A storm will be upon us tomorrow and I hope
everyone stays safe!

New Painting A Bluebird Couple


I just finished a new watercolor & ink painting
of bluebirds.
It's been exciting to see these beautiful birds this winter in Maine.
 
They are available as a print which you can see if you

Dove & Cardinal and Brody


So many different birds have visited
 our bird feeders this winter and many pick up the seeds
that fall into the snow.
It makes for interesting couples.
I just finished this painting of the dove and the cardinal who
are companionable as they search for food.
You can also see it over here 
and it is available as a print.
 
 
 
Brody found some entertainment on the iPad...
an aquarium!
It held his attention for a little bit!
