Little birds

Little Birds

One little bird with lovely feathers blue
Sat beside another one. Then there were two.
Two little birds singing in the tree
Another came to join them. Then there were three.
Three little birds wishing there were more
Along came another bird. Then there were four.
Four little birds glad to be alive,
Found another lonely friend.

Then there were five.

Five little birds just as happy as can be

Five little birds singing songs for you and me.

I've been painting little birds and attaching them to branches. I made a base of concrete, then inserted a twig, added a little moss and paint, and I have a tree full of birds.

This is a project Galen and I have been working on for the 4-H Artisans Show coming up in March. Galen cuts all the little birds out of wood, then carves them into shape to give them some character.

And then he came up with an owl! Isn't he cute. He's waiting for some paint.

I might list some of thse on my etsy shop as well.
