It is that time again where winter is giving way to spring. This winter has been longer and colder than the last few that I have experienced here in Montana. With Vernal Equinox upon us next week, spring becomes official, hopefully opening the door to warmer weather and new growth. On sunny days, when I step outside on my back deck I hear a chorus of birds singing and I am reminded once again that spring is coming. Although, a few more days of warm sunshine are needed to melt the amazing amount of snow still in my yard.

It is so exciting to see all the little sparrows outside getting their
nesting supplies from my backyard. I was delighted to paint what I call 'little
brown bird'. I think that I will be doing a few more of these birds in their brown attire.
