Chickadee Winter Song

11x14





It's almost the end of winter here in the Adirondacks and the chickadees are going crazy on our feeder.  They are the cutest, most vocal of birds - and they're not afraid of people.  My husband swears that, when a squirrel toppled the feeder over, and he couldn't find the knob that would hold the top in place, a chickadee "told" him where it was!  Actually, the chickadee was sitting on the flat hanger right next to the knob and kept cheeping, cheeping, at Bill, until Bill looked up and saw the knob.  That chickadee wanted to eat and needed that knob back on the feeder.......well, that's the story and we're sticking to it!

This is my third try at the chickadee.  I love the grosbeaks, too, but they just aren't as cute to me!

A Dusting on Blue Mountain- Sold

 8x10 


Not much snow yet, although it looks like we might be getting more this week.  It's snowing this morning and very cold, so it's looking good for lots more.  Crazy weather this winter - yes, there is global warming.......I just finished this small painting of Blue Mountain with a dusting of snow.  We went up to the Adirondack Museum Saturday to Christmas shop at the gift store.  There was only a dusting of snow on the mountain, but in the  hour we were in there, the entire top was covered in snow.
