I photographed a pair of Great Blue Herons building their nest at the Venice Rookery near Venice, Florida. The male flew back and forth between the rookery island and the shore to find the best sticks. When he arrived at the nest site, the female would impatiently snatch them out of his beak as if to say, What took you so long?
This Ibis was one of several flying in and out of the trees as we walked by at Jungle Gardens in Sarasota, Florida. They were not too wary of all the tourists walking by, making it relatively easy to get a few shots of them. Until I got home and looked at the photos, I had no idea that Ibis had such big, beautiful, cobalt-blue eyes! The contrast with their salmon-pink faces and bills is stunning!
Pentel on paper, 8"x10". One of my earliest (1983) plein air works and drawn in Provincetown, MA. on our honeymoon.
The painting grew out of thoughts of grandsons Adam and Nicholas and was originally conceived as a preliminary painting of them standing in front of the Savannah Cottage, a painting created for my daughter, Lisa. This painting instead grew out of thoughts of their being at the beach at Tybee Island.
