Sunday, January 6, 2013. What random act of man and nature created this scene of a bird of prey against a winter sky, flying high over the mountains? Walking, walking, walking, I turn my head to the earth, not skyward, and I pass this image by, but I returned to it. What a perfect reflection of what I did see that day, as red-tailed hawks soared over the park on a hunt or maybe just a territory review. Would some Department of Transportation road painter be pleased that this was the result of her work? This pebbly bubble of white, rough-edged for the mountains and textured snowy white for the sky, might not be what she had in mind.
