I think one sitting on a stonewall (we have lots of those here!) or on a stump with its pouches full would be nice :-)<br /><br />Regards, EllenEllen Snyderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09158932570826154360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3618025896103645633.post-84961511178321332912014-10-04T09:44:53.712-04:002014-10-04T09:44:53.712-04:00Hi Ellen,

The contrast of rust vent and black cap with the gray body is simple but beautiful. Very deserving of one of your nice woodcuts.<br /><br />EllenEllen Snyderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09158932570826154360noreply@blogger.com
