I painted a Kinglet a while back. Cute little guy... but it was sorta drab. Last week I saw a male and female together and was surprised to see the red crown on the male. When I looked it up, I saw they are called Ruby Crowned  Kinglets.....Duhhh. Here's the male

MEADOWLARK SINGS

6"x 6" acrylic on Gessoboard............$100

If you've never heard a Meadowlark sing  ...you've missed something wonderful. They have a beautiful long song something like water being poured from a bucket. They sit high on top of a tree or post and belt it out.

BIRD ON A WIRE

6"x6" acrylic on gessoboard.............$100SOLD

While I was enjoying the summer sun in our yard a couple days ago ...a Goldfinch stopped and sang its little song. Next best thing to having a canary in a cage. Just after I finished this painting I realized there is a technical flaw in the wire. Sort of like an M.C.Escher rendering...it looks right at first glance but on closer inspection you see it is a physical impossibility.

Little Brown Nuthatch

$100

These little guys are always around our place. Very friendly ..very busy.

They peck holes in my garage door though. When I hear them out there pecking I run out to tell them to cut it out but they usually just look at me like  'What'?!
