Thanks a lot dear Meg, for your kind words. I would have had no idea that my very brief comment was noticed by the UF staff(?), had you not told me.

I am very happy that you found my words adequate and that is what matters to me.

With Best regards,
Minoo

~~Grin~~
It is a vulture Onie... :)))
These birds are native to this part of Spain, I've often seen them at close quarters out in the wild.
In October last year we climbed to the top of a mountain where they were nesting...it was amazing to watch as they circled below us, for such an ugly bird they are so graceful in the sky! :))

The painting is almost finished...~~BIG Grin~~

The house MAY be sold and it's not even been placed with the estate agent yet....~~Grin~~

:))) Looks almost like a vulture/condor Meg...

Look at that wingspan, and the head & neck appear to be feather free... The beak with that lump and shoulders high... Can imagine it would have been amazing feeling the draft...:)))

Love all the faces and camera's... :)))

Extra nice candid Meg...:)))

Hope all going well with the paint brushes...~~GRIN~~...

Onie...
