We will paint a beautiful painting in the wet on wet style that Bob Ross made famous. We will use only Bob Ross materials such as paint, brushes, and happy little sayings.

You will also be able to see the many originals that I have created and, get this, view 2 Steve Ross Original paintings. Yes, I own 2 of Bob's sons paintings. Oh, we also have 3 golden retrievers that will be happy to say hello to you while you are painting if you would like. Masks are no longer required but encouraged if you are not vaccinated.

We will meet at Keith's house in Pittman Center, have a quick orientation to the area and birding, and then head out on foot to explore the community of Emerts Cove, a section of Pittman Center, one of the richest bird areas in this part of Sevier County. We might elect to drive a short distance to a local pond and horse pasture which are often very rich in bird life. But for the most part, we'll walk for about 2.5 hours, maybe a bit more, and explore the wooded areas, forest edges, tree and hedgerows and grassy and weedy fields for a variety of bird life. Spring and summer are always better because migrant birds have returned from their wintering grounds to breed in this area and bird song is much richer. But autumn and winter are still great times to explore the bird life in Emerts Cove. During our walk, we can talk about rich history of Emerts Cove and Pittman Center as well as the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. FALL Songbird migration is a great time to look for migrants and winter birds from the NORTH are moving in! Spring and Summer bring early migrants and breeding birds. There is always an abundant richness of bird life in the area! After we have explored the area for about 2.5 - 3 hours, we'll return to Keith's home and depart. Other things to note We will walk rain or shine, cold or warm, unless it's pouring and we'll try to reschedule. Wear appropriate weather and climate gear. A hat always helps with sun and any insects, bring sunscreen.
