Tuesday Edition: Laura Levine

Greetings collectors. I have lots to say, as always, but no time to say it. I am leaving San Francisco today, heart and all, and heading back to the steamy apple. I'll be more verbose once I get myself to the other coast.

Till then enjoy Meadow Lark, our third edition from 20x200 fave Laura Levine, who has several pieces in the gallery's Ornithology exhibition.

The Dave Brubeck Quartet's Strange Meadow Lark is a fine musical accompaniment to this piece; the alto sax solo from Paul Desmond which kicks in at the 2:11 mark is sublime. If you're interested in how an actual Meadowlark sounds in the wild, the Western and Eastern varieties both carry lovely tunes. You can also visit the Cornell Lab of Ornithology to read up on these sweet singing birds.

And with that, this bird has flown.
