Snowy River – Buffleheadsoil painting by jim rataczak

to me, they seem out of place if not surrounded

Downy Woodpecker on Winter Birchwatercolor painting by susan bourdet

wintering songbirds.”

Cardinal and Roseswatercolor painting by susan bourdet

Sunset – Loonsacrylic painting by susan k. jordan

They are a marvel of speed and precision.”
