This is little Mountain Chickadee study took me about an hour.  I wanted something quick to do this morning and remembered that Gary Keimig had this as part of his art challenge blog, Wilderness Art Challenge.  Be sure to check out Gary's blogs and artwork and the submissions to his art challenges.  Thanks Gary!

These little birds are so cute and must be pretty tough to survive the severe winters across the western United States.

Psalm 84:3 (New International Version, ©2010)
3 Even the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young—
a place near your altar, LORD Almighty, my King and my God.
