A Winter's Walk

Even a winter's walk can reveal surprises. There was little snow at that date and the small marsh was unfrozen - can't imagine there was much to eat though. I started this sketch immediately, but forgot to finish. I certainly need practice with on-site looseness!

I love these big ol' birds, too. We see them when we kayak up the feeder creeks to the lakes around here. Lovely!
