Description
The other day while taking my daily morning walk, I chanced upon a magical scene. The full moon was setting through a blue sky, and in the branches of a snowy limber pine a big flock of Bohemian Waxwings fluttered and chirped. They would fly a few at a time to the flanking junipers to feast on the blue berries. Through the branches I could glimpse a distant log cabin in the valley, and beyond, the river flowing through the snowy hay fields, and the mountains beyond. I went back later with a camera, but of course the effect and the birds were gone, so I used the photo as a basis for a freehand digital painting. I hope you enjoy this scene half as much as I did!
