Le Nichoir and Wildcard

Le Nichoir is a wild bird rehabilitation centre in Hudson, Quebec about an hours drive from Ottawa and they are hosting a fund raising event called Wildcard. They are calling upon artists to donate small 5" X 7" original pieces of art that will be sold at $ 65.00 each.

Each original is to be signed on the back only so that the purchaser does not know who the artist is. With an event date of August 21st, le Nichoir already has over 260 artists who have committed to donating Wildcards.

They have received donations from 10 Canadian RCA members including:

Philippe Beha
Leslie Poole
Gathie Falk
Bruno Bobak
Joseph-Richard Veilleux
George Walker
Robert Bateman
Marcel Braitstein
John A. Schweitzer
Pnina Gagnon

Here is my contribution to th effort: "Fuzzy" is a young Canada Goose gosling that I photographed last week along the edge of the Rideau River in Ottawa.
