About three years ago I was at a Rhododendron Park in Portland, and was walking through the park listening to birds chirping and singing. There is a small lake in the park and as I got down to the water's edge where I just happened to look over and saw this little bird hanging on the reds. Well as luck would have it I had my camera with me and I took about ten different pictures of the bird, the wind was blowing the reads were moving back and forth. My pictures were just a little fuzzy, but I did manage to get one or two good ones, and this is the painting of him hanging out.
