Persistence

 

Last month while I was staining the deck out back I noticed a waterlogged bird nest in a tree limb that overhangs there.  Then the heavy winds and days of rain came and I didn’t think anything else about it because I didn’t figure anything could be in it.  This morning while out back with Lincoln I looked up and saw these two little faces looking out.  They didn’t move at all but there little heads were just right above the nest.  Guess mom is off finding them a worm.  She must be terribly persistent to make that little home work.

The Ibis is a long-legged wading bird with down curved bills often found in Florida.  They are also known as the hurricane bird as they are generally the last to leave an area before a hurricane arrives and the first to return.  I saw many of them on my recent visit to Florida but this reference photo comes from Cousin Linda who posted it recently on her Facebook page.  Thanks Linda for the inspiration.

Ibis, acrylic on canvas, 36″x18″, $265.
