I have so much on my mind today. I painted up a storm, but this is what I am most proud of. As mentioned before, we have a Great Horned Owl family with two babies in our neighborhood, and I can't visit them enough. I am learning so much about these magnificent creatures and have such a respect for Mother Nature. We live in a fairly urban area with houses very close together not far from Lake Michigan, but we have more than our share of wildlife. On Easter Sunday, we had two giant turkeys in our front yard. We have had coyotes visit as well as deer. (That combination did not go well.) Last year, we had baby racoons on our patio. But the owls....they have captured the hearts of many, including mine. We are waiting for them to fledge, which will be a huge community event. We are hoping they hang around the neighborhood to keep the rabbit population down.
