Artwork Description
“As Mother Nature would have it, we have always been blessed with a constant cycle of wildlife on our farm. But I must say it is the presence of wild birds that bring a constant source of joy and life to the farm. We have fondest memories of raising a newly hatched sparrow that has fallen from it’s nest. Affectionately named “Squirt”, he was eventually released back into the wild, but would return to perch on our hands for a welcomed “squirt” of millet porridge. Part of the children’s daily chores involoved filling the multitude of bird feeders on the property. From the kitchen window I would watch as I prepared dinner. While the other birds would scatter, the sprightly chickadee would patiently wait, never afraid of their presence.”
