 "A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song" —Lou Holtz 

Here's a bright young pair of male and female cardinals, donned in thick warm crimson layers of feathery down, singing a duet while foraging for seeds and fruit from high branches. "Like two birds of a feather, they stick together" throughout the blast of winter's deep chill.

I wanted to keep these paintings simple by limiting the number of brush strokes, as I did with the simple shapes found in my black capped chickadee posted earlier this week. However these fledglings just seemed to require more information in order to portrait the soft feel of fluffy plumes and quill on their chubby forms. 

I have posted these paintings as a pair so as not to split them up, but let's face it, divorce happens...so they are also available individually. ; )

Thank you for perching with me for a moment or two.

Thanksgiving is a time to stop and acknowledge all of the gifts and abundance we are surrounded by. A time to recognize the mystery of our very existence. Rene Magritte said, "One cannot speak about the mystery, one must be seized by it." All that we need is here and now providing everything if we just open our eyes and see. Like this thanks-giving, black capped chickadee, if we simply live in the joy, and trust...there will be berries in winter. 

Spread your wings and fly. According to Joan Chittister, "Life is not about knowing exactly what we're meant to do. It's about doing what must be done that makes of our lives a song."

Find anything, but find something to sing about. Today I give thanks...and most especially for you, my blog followers.
