The third annual Springfield Art & Chalk Fest was held in downtown Springfield on Saturday, August 13, 2016 on a half-acre lot across Fifth Street from city hall and the Springfield Public Library. The festival was put on by the Eugene Springfield Art Project.

I wasn't able to go then, so I went downtown this morning to see what might still be there. This bird, part of a larger art piece drawn with chalk on the parking lot, captivated me. I think it is just beautiful, the eye especially well done. I do not know who the artist is.
