“Built in 1947, Loon Point Light was constructed to warn off incoming migratory birds. Prior to its installation, hundreds of geese, swans and loons smacked into the rocks as they approached the high mountain lake every year. After the light was activated, the deaths declined dramatically. Over the decades, intrepid keepers have kept the light lit for our feathered friends.”

"It is with great joy that I introduce this painting to the public, sharing with them also my relief at not having to step around dead birds when I visit the glorious mountain setting to paint and contemplate the vast natural world we are privileged to live in."
