PATRICIA THE PIGEON

Yesss--it's finally getting cooler! Now the mallards are coming back to the park. And the ducklings born last year aren't afraid of people so come right up to you.

The bird I sketched wasn't the mallard tho', since I've drawn them so many times. Even the crow, I noticed I've done a surprising number of times. Rather, I saw a single cooing bird drop in among the foraging fowl on the grass so decided to draw her.

She flew away just a tad too quick tho'. I wonder if she heard the adage instead of people wishing you'd hurry up and leave, it's better to have them wish you could've stayed longer.
