Mailboxes and a Family of Geese

SNOWY MAILBOXES
Original Watercolor - 15x22

A stormy sky, mountains in the distance and snow falling on country mailboxes - this is a scene where I would expect to see geese flying overhead or nestled in the grass to keep warm - not walking around right outside my back door.

The other day as I headed outside for my morning run (not that I actually get it done every morning) I suddenly saw a family of geese calmly walking down the street.
I watched them for a while and then ran back for my camera - luckily they stayed put long enough for me to snap a few pics. Sometimes it is life's little surprises that can put a smile on your face and make your day!
