Default first bird
Here is my first bird (with feathers) I have done smooth ducks and roadrunners, swans,... but never feathers. I wanted to see what I could without burning in any feathers. Any ideas?

System wont let me attach cause its too big. How can I downsize a jpg file?

I have the picture on carver galleries under Justin Howell
Thanks

Default Re: first bird
This wood is live oak. The tree was knocked down in 1961 by Hurricane Carla but lived on for years. Its the same tree I did the whales from.

I will try to down load the resizer.
