Monday Is....


 

The figurine birds are congregating on our fireplace mantel. They are fun to hold in you hand. I remember my wife  picking up them in shops and carrying them with here hand clutching it.

 


 

The starlings were flying around as if they were in a migration mode. It seems late in the season to do that but we had hundreds of them in the back yards and this tree. They were eager to eat from the grass as there were some green blades in there for them.

 


The workspace for my paper cranes is in the spare bedroom. It is hanging from the control chain from the hanging ceiling fan. I have streams of these birds on strings and I have created a mobile with multiple balance strips. I have one more balance piece to put at the top with one last strip of birds. The photo doesn't show them in motion so it does look like a clutter of things. I have not made a single new paper crane in three days so maybe the obsession is over for now. 

We have warmed up a bit today.46 degrees F. this afternoon. The wind is blowing now and the temps are again dropping. Thanks for stopping by today.

Neat birds! Obsessions come and go with creative juices. Maybe yours just need a rest or a new direction.
