The carÂdiÂnals that freÂquent my backÂyard year-round seem to mulÂtiÂply durÂing winÂter storms, makÂing me wonÂder if they someÂhow know they look incredÂiÂble in the snow. Since the white stuff startÂed falling Sunday mornÂing, I’ve had a hard time pulling myself away from the winÂdow because the redÂbirds are out in full force and I’m addictÂed to beauty.
I did manÂage to tear myself away long enough to dig up this 2022 paintÂing made almost three years ago to the day. Maybe latÂer I’ll actuÂalÂly get around to creÂatÂing someÂthing new, but right now all I want to do is watch it snow.
