Golden Eagle Art Gallery is pleased to offer an extensive collection of world-renowned artworks by Canadian wildlife artist, Robert Bateman.  World-travelled and well versed, Bateman always tells a great story about each of his creations. Here is what he has to say about this piece:

"I remember one winter's day when I was a boy, watching with astonishment, a man standing in a park. He held out his hand with one sunflower seed at a time and chickadees came to pluck them from his fingers. When I returned home, I tried it on our back porch with a bit of fruit cake. I saw a chickadee in a nearby bush, made a squeaking  sound, and instantly I was delighted to feel the delicate cool feet on my fingers and the little beak snatching my offering."
