Just cleaning out an SD card and found some beautiful shots from April on the Ranch on the Idaho Montana border (Idaho side). The ranch sites on the Continental Divide.
I always love how big the sky looks in the Rocky Mountains.
One of my favorite birds and common here in Northern Illinois, the northern flicker. A woodpecker that loves wooded areas. I recently made a commissioned flicker which inspired me to paint this one also.
The lilacs have already come and gone. But I still have a few photos of them on my phone. I used this one as inspiration for the painting of the flicker.
