diving for perch at our cottage on Anchor Bay and my home on Austin Lake. To paint this image, I searched for kingfishers at nearby lakes they are known to frequent, and then took a pontoon boat trip down the Huron River where I followed them as they stayed just enough ahead so I could not get a photo. I chose to paint a female because of her characteristic extra rust colored band around her belly depicting the "belt", and placed her in a sycamore tree. As I painted this bird I realized how her striking primitive looking heas resembles the prehistoric Pterodactyl’s. -Suzanne |
