Old Salt

Like an old birdy sea captain, this nest of a head suspended on the forsythia bush seems to be beaking orders with his wooly white cap glowing in the sun. In the Spring he will doff his cap to welcome the little eggs that will hatch as new ideas from the captured warmth of his craggy skull.

Another Perspective

What appears to be patchy snow on the the rolling landscape is really the face of a moss covered rock. A splash of spring on the barren boulder.

The twisty composition of the gnarled roots on the ground, come to life with a little color added... I see a mythical bird with a banner.
