Ram Pasture Brook

Along the main street of Newtown Connecticut, there is a lovely, long meadow with a stream that runs down the middle of its length, pooling before it slips under a roadway bridge. Canada geese and ducks make themselves at home there, and parents bring their children to feed the birds. Standing on the bridge, looking south, the colors remind me of a peacock - the lush greens of tail, body and wings and the tall strong neck of irridescent turquoise tapering to a brush topped head.
