Gracing a Struggling Tree

Painting plein air on a late spring afternoon, I was admiring this struggling tree. The trees around it were much more lush and full, but this one caught my eye. I said a little prayer for its survival, and when I looked up from my canvas, a white pidgeon landed on one of the dead branches. Yes, it's a pidgeon, but it was as radiant in that afternoon sun as any dove.
And there I was with my paintbrush in hand.... ;-)
