Spent a few hours today in the northwest part of the Texas panhandle. This is the first of a couple of sketches that I did on location at the Muleshoe National Wildlife Refuge. The area is home to migrating sandhill cranes. They begin arriving in december and will remain until March....then they begin their migration to their summer breeding grounds 2500 miles away in northern Canada. Amazing and beautiful bird...not bad eatin' either!
The map is a nice touch. Lucky you to have these migrating birds to pose for you.
