I need to send my mother your blog addy so she can check it out. She would love this entry.
Great photo - and very much like a painting!
Nice shot of the aracari for BPW! I also enjoyed reading your recent posts on your Peru trip. Sounds like a wonderful experience!
Exotic birds framed so nicely, Tim. Just lovely!

Great shot and I love the painting.
I love the (supposed) simplicity of Chinese painting.
Definitely a painting. What beauty you find out there in the world!
Love it when birds meet art and vice versa! I like that word, "Aracari".
Great comparison! I love how shots of the wild can sometimes meld into pattern like that. -X
Perfect for sure . . . and would be a great painting if painted!
