Default Birdhouse
Sometimes I have trouble deciding which forum to put stuff in.. this was carved in low relief and then wood burned. I did this as an entry for a bird house contest and just completed it last night. Thanks for looking and comments welcomed!

Hi Mike, Now that's what I call a Bird House. You should be making a place to put the award that it's going to bring. Nice job Mike. Merle
