Best in show award

I had a good showing this weekend..Got "best in show" for the Indigo blue bunting. I just got it carved a few days before, carved from bass wood, flower stem made fron brass tubing, leaves was made by myself also, so here are some pics from the show. The sunflowers were made and painted by me. thanks for looking.

Tom,
You are very, very talented.

I just received the CD with thousands of birds on it, with their song. Now I just need to send a copy to you. It should keep you busy for a day or two.
