I'd like to interact with more of you who are interested not only in art, or wildlife art, but each week I'm going to pose a seris of questions about the steps or choices we make daily that impact our environment. A week from this Thursday, on February 5, I'll put all the names in a hat, and draw a winner for those participating in this week's survey. 

The way to submit your response is to use my "survey form" at the top of my website. You may enter, your name, e-mail, home or PO address, with your views. To the winner, I can send either a 8 X 10 print on matte paper to your home or PO address, or a jpeg to your e-mail, it is your choice.

In today's painting, "planet earth" is very beautiful even when seen from above, a gem in the heavens. This will be the print for the winner on February 5. The survey results will be published on February 5, of numbers of responses, and the summary of the response of the winner (no names). 

Today's Question: With wildlife species numbers fluxuating, some  species are going up and some species are going down, what ways can you see America charting, to help balance nature, but not at her expense? List two key areas that have merit, and what do you see as the outcome if followed? What species would directly benefit?

Thanks, and let's have some fun. Who knows your idea could be life saving.

Have a great day, many thanks.

Jimmy
