Autumn's Artist: Backyard Birds for Beginners

A cool and clever breeze blows into the State of Colorado around September every year. This gusty wind likes to paint the various shrubs and trees yellow and orange, red and gold. She also enjoys shaking the colorful leaves to the ground, making playful patterns. This zephyr is Autumn's Artist, and within this narrative poem, her playful gestures are enhanced by the presence of several backyard birds found in our state. Readers will delight in the author's word play as well as her whimsical acrylic paintings, all the while learning about our avian neighbors.
