"Heron"

I lived for many years on the edge of a marsh. Herons and egrets were there every day in season, except for about 10 years when the ecology of the marsh had been unbalanced by an oil spill in the harbor miles away. So they disappeared until the water was right again. It was a happy day when they came back.

This piece is from the Olmstead Linden. The steel base was designed and created by Bob Menard, Ball and Chain Forge. He's an artist himself, and he did a beautiful job. I look forward to having him collaborate on future work.

The heron is (base included) 21.5" high, 13"wide, 7" deep.
