Train Tracks Series

 

Coming down the tracks is a new Train Tracks Series print.  View the winter gathering of a turkey flock on the WK&S railroad outside of Kempton.  Here they gather under the oak trees to fill up on the acorns of which there was a good crop this year.  Among them you'll find the smoke gray, color aberration turkey being accepted and feeding among the flock.  Use your imagination to figure out in which direction they will scatter... or will they fly as the steam locomotive comes down on them?

  Spring Turkey Tracks is the fifth in the Train Tracks Series.  By not incorporating a train I have removed the tension caused with the train bearing down on the wildlife, and thus allowing for a casual crossing of the tracks.

  This rocky ledge overlooks Penn's Creek above the railroad tunnel and bridge just down stream from Coburn. The railroad was built in 1879 for the logging industry, and Poe Valley was the site of a major lumber mill. Depicted here is a Shay engine delivering a train of log-filled cars to the mill. It was during this era that the last lions were reportedly observed in the area. This rock outcrop fills one's imagination as a recluse for a lion. Could this be the last Nittany lion?
