Stormy Sky I - A Work in Progress

Around this area there is a lot of wetland along the Miller Creek system, which gives a natural habitat for a wide variety of wildlife.

Many kinds of birds abound on the Snelgrove Brook at the back part of my property.












I am amazed at the number of ducks, geese and swans that return to nest every year; together with herons, kingfishers and ospreys that can often be seen hunting for food and the various song birds nesting among the cattails.

This painting is of a heron that frequents a section of the Brook on my property. I saw him one day with a storm rolling in from the east.

I will post this painting when I have finished adding the storm clouds into the sky.
