"Sandhill Crane Preening with Poem" is a giclée print of an original watercolor and poem by me, Katherine Moore.
I watched this crane preening from the boardwalk at UW Arboretum in Madison, WI. It's colors were extraordinary! I learned it gets the bright orange from rubbing mud on its feathers while preening, the more iron rich the soil, the redder the hue. Amazing!

Lost Feather Studio is a small independent art studio located in Madison, WI. As both an artist and a naturalist my inspiration grows from my love and respect for our natural world. Every Sunday my family hikes together to connect with one another, but also to replenish our spirit as we connect to the natural world and the wonders that surround us. Every weekend brings new delight as we find heart-shaped lichens, hear an owl call, or find tiny baby toads hiking the trail with us. Just as sunlight feeds an Oak Tree, the Oak Tree feeds my soul. I hope my art shares these moments of inspiration and feeds yours too - Katherine
