biggest week in American Birding...

Just so happens, that the biggest week in American Birding takes place just short of an hour's drive from where I live.  And...apparently...(who knew?) Northwest Ohio is the Warbler capital of the world.

Well then, I deemed it appropriate to paint some of these lil guys and gals.  Turns out Ohio is smack dab in the path of the migrational flight of these birds among others.

May 6-15, 2014 the "Biggest week in American Birding" takes place at Maumee Bay State Park in Oregon, Ohio.

Meanwhile, I've painted this lil fella, the "Prothonotary Warbler" on an ACEO card original. Measuring 2.5x3.5 inches on 140lb watercolor paper this piece is an ink and watercolor mixed media piece.
