With A Little Help From My Friends

Don't these guys just make you smile!  This was the other painting left for display last year (see explanation under "Koi").  I got to thinking.  If you're a bird, you really need to have friends because there are always going to be things that you just can't do on your own.  Not a bad lesson for the rest of us--bird or otherwise.

There's something about being in a class.  The teacher says, "Paint a bird."  A bird?  Really?  Okay.  But you know what?  This guy was actually lots of fun to do.
