Happy Thanksgiving

There's really not much to say other than: Happy Thanksgiving. With all that is wrong in the world it's good to have a day to remember what's right. Among today's reminders was this male Pileated Woodpecker, seen with a female. Recently we've also seen Northern Harriers at Dixon Meadow Preserve. There was a time when I would have greatly question the likelihood of seeing harriers just a few miles from home.

And I've been dabbling with more sumi brush pen sketches. The most recent ones are seen below.
