Mockingbirds and wild rose hips. Day 12 #ArtAdventCalendar I think I drew this after reading that mockingbirds might eat winter moths? We have been inundated with the moths the last few years.

St Louis trip day 1/3 complete! Amtrak to Alton, visited the Melvin Price Lock and Dam, then rode to the Olin Nature Preserve. Never heard so many red-headed woodpeckers in my life.
