The Cape May warbler is one of the many species of migrants which winters in the tropics and breeds in the northern forests. In recent years, their numbers have been rapidly declining. There are many reasons for this, but two obvious ones are the cutting of forests and the spraying of pesticides. In this painting, I have shown the tip of a balsam fir with its rich bounty of cones. I enjoy their soft, purplish bloom in contrast with the warbler. Let us hope that nature and common sense will prevail, and the warblers will not only survive but multiply back to their former populations. - RB

ABOUT EMAILING FOR PRICE:
1. Once an item is "sold out" and only available thru "secondary" or "resale" sources, pricing can vary day by day or hour by hour as resales occur. In such instances, the prices you see on our website may represent the last of those items sold as opposed to today's price. That is why we often tell you to "email" for pricing. And that is why prices often change without notice.
