Acrobats of the sky...lapwings, I have been titling my work for my website today, this painting was inspired by my experience of these wonderful birds and poetry, Mary Oliver refers to "starlings in winter" as acrobats and I felt it applied to lapwings as well... there are often flocks around the @rspb_love_nature reserve at hayle estuary...I must ensure I catch up with them again this year...
