OOPS

Painting detail by S. Auberle

someone close to me just pointed out that the birds above, and in the below post are, in fact, cranes.  My only defense is that when I painted this in 2001, I didn't realize that geese do not fly with outstretched legs, as cranes do.  So these birds are cranes, which I also love, but I'm not changing the poem title.  Mea culpa...
