| Future Robins |
I've been enjoying the activity of the birds this spring, as we have had
an early spring in terms of snow melt, so that the robins have been
busy yanking worms out of the ground and singing their pretty songs
throughout the day. I was watching a robin hop from branch to branch
today, looking for the perfect spot to build her nest. I wonder what
goes into the final decision ... especially since there are no leaves on
the trees as yet, how do they know where to build? Last year the
robin's nest I was watching was raided by blackbirds, perhaps starlings,
but not before the robin layed her eggs and spent quite a lot of time
keeping them safe and warm. Today's painting features a colorful robin
on a colorful background, titled
Robin Song ... and I even added a small painting of a nest with three robins eggs titled
Future Robins.
These paintings are at Sivertson Gallery in Grand Marais, MN.
