Thanks to a combination of listener tips, online searching and advice from Donna Bruce from the Saskatoon Nature Society, I have determined my mystery bird I have been seeing in the trees around the radio station is a Towhee. (this is not my photo...I borrowed this one)

This is the painting by Saskatchewan artist Joanne Marchildon that was created as a tribute to fallen RCMP Officers Robin Cameron and Marc Bourdages who were killed near Spiritwood just over two years ago. The original is up for auction while prints can be purchased for $150. Joanne will donate all proceeds raised to the Bourdages, Cameron Trust Account.

Pssst...hey buddy...wanna make a million???  Just come up with a cloth Gazebo that lasts!!!
