Sometimes a Heart gets all caught up in everything, looses its way and winds up out of control and in a vortex. It happens all the time. Don’t worry bout it.
Hearts fly in to start the day, over the mountains to the high plains valley. The air is crisp and clear, it should be a good day.
In the crisp late winter air the hearts gather on the fence line.
Hearts congregate in large numbers, murders these groups are called.
Hearts head home after spending the day in the valley. They’ll fly back tomorrow.
Hearts fly high and in a Vee as they wing northward to the warm summer waters.

Winter rolls in. Hearts roost in leafless trees in the late-light early morning, winds 15-17mph out of the northeast. Hardship forms a bond.
It snowed all day and at high noon the sky is leaden and icy. Hearts huddle on the power lines to stay warm. They hear the traffic signals switch and see the cars flow beneath them.
Hearts travel together while migrating, safety in numbers, ya know.

There’s a stairway at the cabin. The cat goes rippin’ up three steps, springs to the bannister, zooms up to the top rail and glares. No one knows why.
Brook Trout – Salvelinus fontinalis, watercolor on paper, 12×9″, 2018, by Jean Krueger, copyrighted with all rights reserved
Brook Trout or Brookies or Salvelinus fontinalis are the ubiquitous American fish. They are native to this continent and thrive where water is cold and fast or cold and deep. They’re a favorite fish for the US Forest Service to plant as they have great sport fishing value, not too hard to catch. This guy painted here is full scale about 7-8 inches and is shown at full scale.
