This is how my first serious painting looks like and I chose to paint an owl. That was like 6 years ago I think :D Very few had seen this. When I was painting this, I was thinking “If I were an owl, I would be able to hear the sweet whispers of lovers in the park.”...yep, in case you are wondering, those are sound waves, owls have such fantastic hearing that’s simply amazing!! I always treasure the beginner’s spirit and I kept reminding myself not to lose it….because once you become used to something, it loses that magic, It is now nicely framed and hanging in the most intimate part of my apartment. For those of you who may be curious to see how my owls look like now, you can check them out at my udonchow gallery here in RB :D / /

Featured in I Love Birds January 4, 2009. / Featured in Light In The Darkness December 14, 2008. / Featured in Bits & Pieces December 14, 2008. “In the bleak midwinter / Frosty wind made moan, / Earth stood hard as iron, / Water like a stone; / Snow had fallen, / Snow on snow, / Snow on snow, / In the bleak midwinter, / Long ago. / Although written by Christina Rossetti before 1872, it was published posthumously in Rossetti’s Poetic Works in 1904 and became a Christmas carol after it appeared in The English Hymnal in 1906 with a setting by Holst. / According to the website CyberHymnal, Rossetti wrote these words in response to a request from the magazine Scribner’s Monthly for a Christmas poem” ... Wikipedia “Bleak Midwinter” has been one of my favorite Christmas carols for years now … I first heard it sung by John Gorka and encourage everyone, if you can find it, to listen. Here’s another lovely version of it that I hope you enjoy!! Bleak Midwinter Obsidian Dawn

Featured in Bubblers’ Weekly Challenge group July 20, 2009. / Third Place in the “Fiery RedHeads” challenge in Bubblers’ Weekly Challenge July 20, 2009. / Featured in _Safe Haven February 10, 2009. We had a little snow here in Maryland last week, and I was so hoping some of my Cardinal buddies would come visit the feeders!!! Here’s one of the males … giving me “the look” that says “Hope she filled the feeders!” Image taken on February 2, 2009 with the Nikon D40x, using the 70-300mm VR lens. “Cardinalidae Male Northern Cardinal / Scientific classification / Kingdom: Animalia / Phylum: Chordata / Class: Aves / Order: Passeriformes / Suborder: Passeri / Family: Cardinalidae / Genera / Periporphyrus / Saltator / Caryothraustes / Parkerthraustes / Rhodothraupis / Cardinalis / Pheucticus / Cyanocompsa / Passerina / Spiza / The Cardinals or Cardinalidae are a family of passerine birds found in North and South America. The South American cardinals in the genus Paroaria are placed in another family, the Thraupidae (previously placed in Emberizidae). / These are robust, seed-eating birds, with strong bills. The family ranges in size from the 12-cm, 11.5-gram Orange-breasted Bunting to the 25-cm, 85-gram Black-headed Saltator[verification needed]. They are typically associated with open woodland. The sexes usually have distinctive appearances; the family is named for the red plumage (colored cardinal like the color of a Catholic cardinal’s vestments) of males of the type species, the Northern Cardinal. / The “buntings” in this family are sometimes generically known as “tropical buntings” (though not all live in the tropics) or “North American buntings” (though there are other buntings in North America) to distinguish them from the true buntings. Likewise the grosbeaks in this family are sometimes called “cardinal-grosbeaks” to distinguish them from other grosbeaks. The name “cardinal-grosbeak” can also apply to this family as a whole. / Most species are rated by the IUCN as least concern, though some are near threatened.” info courtesy of Wikipedia

On the drive home from Barnard Castle today I stopped at the side of the road and walked down the field to photograph the old disused Langleydale railway viaduct in the snow (as you do!). As I was returning to the car – I spotted the two rickety gates silhouetted against the snow and the winter sunset. The bird is a little added extra – a photoshop brush kind courtesy of WyckedBrush of Deviant Art. /

100% of proceeds received from Redbubble in respect to sales of this item, will be donated to Bush Heritage Australia Photo of Gentoo Penguins taken during a light snow storm on Curville Island Antarctic Peninsula. The Gentoo Penguin is listed as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red list of Threatened Species Melting sea ice and overfishing have triggered a dangerously rapid decline in penguin populations on the Antarctic peninsula – a direct result of global warming, warns a new report from the WWF. Temperatures on the frozen continent are rising five times faster than the global average due to the unprecedented rate of climate change, pushing four species perilously close to extinction. Warmer temperatures are forcing penguins to raise their young on increasingly thinner and more precarious ice floes, while stronger winds mean many eggs and chicks are being blown away from their parents before they are able to survive on their own. The gentoo, chinstrap and adélie – along with the emperor, the largest penguin species in the world – are now struggling to survive as melting sea ice destroys nesting sites and reduces vital food sources, such as krill.

Best viewed larger Featured in Snow Glorious Snow October 19, 2009. An adorable little Black Capped Chickadee perched on my deck railing, braving the snow and ice on a February afternoon in 2008. I named this image in honor of my friend, Renee Dawson who loves Black capped Chickadees dearly, and who also coined the phrase. Her chickadee images are beyond compare!!! I just thought this little guy looked a bit “kerflustered” on this cold winter’s day!! Image taken with the Nikon D40x and the 55-200mm vr Nikon lens at 190mm focal length. Shutter 1/320, aperture f/5.6, exp. 0.00, iso 800. I hand-painted the entire bird in Corel Paint 11 and created and added the snow layer in Photoshop. Texture layer from Skeletal Mess at Deviant Art added in Photoshop. The following information is from What Bird.com Overview / Black-capped Chickadee: Medium-sized, stocky chickadee with pale gray upperparts and breast and pale olive-brown underparts. The black cap and bib and white cheeks are conspicuous. Black bill is short and thin. Wings are dark with broad white edges on feathers. State bird of Maine and Massachusetts. / INTERESTING FACTS / The song of the Black-capped Chickadee is one of the most complex vocalizations of all animals, acting as a contact call, an alarm call, to identify an individual, or to indicate recognition of a particular flock. / They may cache food in hundreds of different sites, recalling those locations and retrieving food up to 28 days later. / It is the state bird of Maine and Massachusetts. / A group of chickadees are collectively known as a “banditry” and a “dissimulation” of chickadees.
