I seem to be on a bird kick right now. I did a program for a local guild and took my folding design board with sixteen quilts and twelve of them depict birds. And I also took some large bird quilts. Maybe it is because there are many birds in the area right now - a number of mockingbirds choosing their territories and singing most of the night, a white-crowned sparrow on the back wall, a house finch nest under the patio roof, a towhee scratching around in the underbrush, hummers investigating the roses, and, of course, crows flap, flap, flapping across the sky.

Del, it is such a pleasure to see my little bird in your collection. I, too, have an obsession with birds and their nests and am having a great time creating them in my Birdsong series. Thanks for an always interesting blog.
I love your little bird quilts. I was sitting at the kitchen table yesterday looking out over the water and saw a bald eagle swoop straight for the house and then veer off through the woods beside the kitchen. Next, a Great Blue Heron came in for a landing on a branch hanging over the water. Never a dull moment!
