I’m excited to announce that my original scratch art piece Twins is currently on display at the Shemer Art Center in Phoneix.
It is included in their juried art exhibit “Mini Masterpieces,” which runs through March 21. Twins is available for purchase at the center.

Sandhill cranes (Antigone canadensis), at Whitewater Draw, Cochise County, Arizona.
These late-afternoon photos at the draw were taken while most of the sandies were still gleaning the adjacent fields. As evening deepened the few shown here were joined to form a flock of about 20,000 cranes. It is an astonishing sight to see so many of these big birds at once.
