Brand New One, drypoint etching, acrylic background and gouache paint birds, pastels and an experiment that almost ended up on the "burn pile." 14" x 9" and our favorite front yard ducks. I love painting these listening to Terry Conrad on MTPRadio, Jazz Sessions!
I think the eagles hatched yesterday, the female taking a break across the Bitterroot, male filling in. This will be fun, year 15.
Our favorite Peregrine ledge up the Blackfoot occupied by two Canada Geese. No way the falcons would be sharing that nest spot, but hopefully some young from a few years ago will come back and kick them out. Empty for two years probably because of highly contagious avian influenza, so sad.
My first Osprey of the year, Clark Fork river by Bonner, and first Peregrines, up the Blackfoot River at Chamberlain Creek! Cool!
The Bald Eagle Clark Fork River nest, topic of my book in 2013, now with a big garbage bag inhabitant.
Lucky shots of the Great Blue Heron at the slough yesterday and almost didn't bring my camera with the light rain. She wouldn't fly as the eagles were right overhead! Weird, the eagles are settled in the nest as if incubating, then flying around and perched in the neighbor all day. Bet we don't have offspring this year. Want to place bets?
Weird color in the sun, this friend was right in the yard. We counted 50+ Ravens flying over Point Six the day before, skiing at SnowBowl!
