Missouri, when
we saw
a river of blackbirds that went on and on.

Nebraska Crows,© 98 Jane Capellaro. All Rights Reserved.
One hot september day driving through Nebraska we
stopped to nap and stretch and
sketch under the shade of some cottonwood trees.
The wind blows hard over the low hills.
The sound of the rustling leaves was
making me feel ecstatic. There were no crows
flying then, only in my imagination. I always loved
to paint blackbirds
They are not in the original sketch,
and you cannot see
windmill in the distance in this
little oil painting, 4" x 5".
I love Nebraska, I hope to visit as
often as possible.

find the tripoint (Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska).
