'Towhee'

One day last winter while looking for a

sheltered place amongst the trees to

do some plein air painting, I was able to

get a photo of this Rufous-sided Towhee.

I watched as he hunted along the

luxuriously moss covered Garry oak limb.

Nature can provided some startling colour

even on a gray winters day.
