The Juncos approve of my recent stitch.
The consensus seems to be that the stitched birds are reasonably life-like.
Besides Juncos, I have Steller's Jays...
California Scrub Jays
American Robins
Ravens
Cedar Waxwings
Three young birds and one mature bird. Can you spot the mature bird?
Pine Siskins!
This is the second time a small group of Pine Siskins has come by.
Stay for the winter guys! I'll take good care of you.
Red-breasted Nuthatch
American Goldfinch and Red-breasted Nuthatch.
These guys are such characters. Fun to watch.
Oh I like this finish Beth!
ReplyDeleteGreat finish + great pics!
ReplyDeleteSuch a darling finish, Beth! I've always loved gray and pink together--and the Juncos are such lovely little birds :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty finish. I get lots of juncos in the winter when I feed the birds from my deck.
ReplyDeleteThat PS square is one of my four also! Tho when I stitched it, I had not seen a Junco, ever! It was many, many years ago! Great bunch of backyard birds. You never know who will drop in, do you? This fall, I want to see a Red-breasted Nuthatch too! It's been on my list a while! Thanks for sharing! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteIs the mature bird the one on the bottom branch on the right side?
