Nancy,
Love the carving and the concept kind of tells a story. You are like wine and cheese you just keep getting better.

Thanks everyone.
My thoughts were that I needed the "extra" stuff in the carving to do exactly what Colin said, tell the story. I too felt that the Dodo alone would be "just plain" as Bob thought, blah. Hi-Ho, it is entered in a show, the 11th & 12th of this month, so we will see My first real show, can't wait! Hope tghere's a bunch of vendors there so I can buy lots of stuff
