Just as with you it's a pleasure to see the first one of the spring, generally up in the trees outside our cabin. He's such a picture of spring for us. I'm happy the drawing portrays something like that. It's just what I wanted.Ken Januskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16984782169460110520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3618025896103645633.post-10788998523766213892010-03-08T16:26:40.807-05:002010-03-08T16:26:40.807-05:00Ken,

Of course I love the bird in real life and your depiction of the bird and surroundings -- the sky, the tree -- with such rich colors is terrific. Always a pleasure to see the first one that returns to our yard, and your pastel is just how I imagine seeing him up in the tree, looking elsewhere and calling.Ellen Snyderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09158932570826154360noreply@blogger.com
