Default Newest Carving!

Here is the last birdhouse face I finished. I have done one for each of my aunts. This one will be going to California.

Hope you enjoy it.

Comments and critiques welcome.

Now that's a neat idea and the carving is great! My only question is how does the bird get in?

Remember the old song, "May the Bird of Paradise Fly up Your Nose"?

Actually, it isn't a real birdhouse. Just a facade.

Scott, To heck with the bird house. The carving is fantastic on its own. And why not a real bird house, with a great front like that?

Really great carving and thank's for the close up shot which answers even more questions. Good idea too and that is a great item to enlighten any backyard fence, complete with a little mini-roof to shed some of the water. I really like this one and bet that it'd be a good seller! Thank's for posting.
