Animal Wednesday: Every Birdie Welcome!

Each year the Pacific Grove Historical Society has a fundraiser where they ask many local artists to create and donate a birdhouse. This is my entry for last year. It brought in $185 for the cause, and hopefully a wonderful bird family loves the house! I also got an honorable mention. You should have seen some of those houses! Wow, what imaginations!

I bought the house already painted green. I added the sky and branches in the front with a butterfly. The back design is an espalier with two house sparrows.

Each side has a little bird with a juicy berry and the top has a nest with 3 eggs. The photo of the top and the right side can't be found. Oh well, you get the idea!

I thought it would be an appropriate post for today with so many of us wishing for the first signs of Spring.

Happy Animal Wednesday!
