Can't go wrong with a bee skep!  The ants along the top were to be stitched with French knots, but I chose to cross stitch instead.



I heard it!  My Merlin app hear it!

And I saw it!

High atop a Douglas fir tree.

Very hard to see.

But there it was!

A female Bullock's Oriole!

I am not sure I have ever said how much I enjoy all your cross stitches and their history--thanks--cute ants by the way!!! And of course I always love all the bird photos along with your nature photos--keep it going!!
