This tote bag features a female Red-Tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis). One of the most widespread and commonly observed birds of prey in North America, this fierce hunter is perched on a branch high up in some evergreen spruce trees, patiently waiting for a meal to appear. Her head is brown and the creamy white breast has brown spots. The red tail only is seen from the back.




This terrific image of dogs reading, writing and attending school is by the well known vintage pets artist, Louis Wain. Known primarily for his anthropomorphic images of cats, Louis Wain also made a large number of dog images, mainly in his earlier years. He illustrated about one hundred children's books, and his work appeared in papers, journals, magazines. He also created a large number of greeting cards and postcards featuring dogs and cats in human situations. This image is from a 1910 postcard
