Description
The cold front was very subtle. The northerly winds were light. I went for a kayak paddle to check on the loons and the mute swans. Everyone was fine. The mute swans were setting up housekeeping in the west basin. The nest was on a hammock of bulrushes in the large provincially significant wetland to the north of the Single Lake Campground. Meanwhile the loons were busy feeding and were not much interested in the SS Loon nesting platform which I had launched. I had already moved the nesting platform once trying to entice some interest. The only bird interested in breeding was the bald eagle. An eagle was on the large nest in the Single Lake Campground. A wind storm had knocked off the top half of a large white pine. The one or two foot diameter trunk had karate chopped a trailer in half. Other trailers did not fare much better. The eagle's nest was unscathed.
There was just a bit of green showing in the tips of the spring trees. I was attracted by the sliver of bright silver sky on the southwestern horizon under the overcast stratocumulus.

A new favorite...wonderous palette and the teal and bright streak of cream light. You have put all the blues and lavenders together with a such amazing brushwork...great, Phil Chadwick! L/F

Good morning Sunny! This painting is almost tiny but it does have a loud voice with lots to say in not many brush strokes. You are very kind and your encouragement is so very appreciated. Thank you.
