Lily pads and lotus stemmed leaves dominate the foreground. Middle ground a bed of lily pads and lotus flowers. Bluffs along the main channel of the Mississipi River can be seen in the background. Bright green and blue are the dominate palette.

Hopefully this scence will be recreated this year. Lily pads and lotus flowers.

Landscape of yellows and browns with a tree with an eagle nest dominating the image. Painted in an expressionist style. No songs birds were hurt at this spot in real life.

Eagles' nest
There are a number of eagles' nests one can see, walk near, in the #trempealeaunationalwildliferefuge .
Winter provides clear viewing and less chance of upsetting the inhabitants.

Loose brush showing scrub trees and golden grasses in the foreground. Bluffs of the Driftless region in the background with a blue sky. The blackbirds, tiny specks, gather to the right of the image in trees and the grasses.

Gathering of blackbirds.
Informed by a photo from September, 2022.

Every year blackbirds gather for their migration to somewhere hopefully warmer.

I sat in the navigator seat yesterday as a friend n I drove to the land of swedish meatballs n blue/yellow.
I saw lots of predators flying or perched on conveniently placed sign posts. Probably wouldn't see them if I was driving.

Abstract forms with a series of mostly vertical linear shapes of various colors lapsed by three, mostly blue, forms placed in mostly horizontally that have the vertical linear forms woven around them. This is from my #orphanboxoflostprojects. It was started some years ago when a friend was with an illness that killed her.

A blue leafless deciduous tree on a found page from a prodigal Periodical.

Spending time walking the woods now we can see the trees laid bare with all their bruises, breaks, wounds, continued battle to grow and survive in a hostile environment.
With them as models how could we dare give up on this life.
