I was so happy catching that picture and actually got a few nice shots that day. I chose to share this one because I liked the way he looked down at me, like "hey, what'ya looking at?" I didn't see them much as a child either, in Endicott, NY, near Binghamton. I just love the gorgeous color of the male and want to do a 'real' painting of him someday. I'm glad you like the details about how I do things, or my experiences in the field. I'm not a professional writer but do enjoy it! I guess if you like nature, you like to learn about other's findings. Glad you're following me here. New post coming soon! Well thanks so much Frankye!

I was amazed at the photo of the Baltimore Oriole. I admit - I haven't seen one of those for over 50 years! What a treat to see a photo of one that you have seen! I was born in Annapolis, Maryland, and, even as a young child, it was a rarity to see one in our locale. Thank you for the details that you share about your sketches, the colors and identification of the plants and grasses. It is quite helpful to me. I am enjoying your blog and your sketching.
