Red-cockaded Woodpecker for Dad



My father was a forester for a 50 year career and a conservationist. The last part of his life, he gave back to the pine woods he loved so much. He fought hard to get a workable Red-cockaded Woodpecker Conservation Plan for his profession society. The experience taught me that this work is not easy. Everyone has their own idea of how it should work. However in the end, it will be good for the birds and the environment.

Here is a multi-plate colored and embossed etching I did of a Red-cockaded Woodpecker. It mats out to 20" x 30"





Happy Fathers Day. Dad.
