You Looking at Me?
We have a number of feeders for the birds in our yard.
Depending on where they located, certain types of birds only
feed at particular feeders. The Carolina chickadee, though, is
not hesitant to visit any of them. And, while he is one of the
smallest birds who come to visit, he will be one of the first to
return to the feeders after a hawk or cat has chased the birds
away. As a result, when I began to take photos of the birds, the
Chickadee seemed to be in every picture. I had to laugh,
though, when I first examined the shot that developed into
"You Looking At Me?" Perhaps birds don't have facial expression
or mannerisms, but this one seemed to be trying to tell me
something.
You Looking At Me? is a scratch drawing on 12" x 9" black
scratchboard. The original has been sold. However, we have a few giclee prints.
