Love this one Jim , they were everywhere when you and I were young Jim . I miss them they are beautiful and this is beautiful too . Have you seen Carolyn Anderson paint small birds if not it's worth a look she does them very loose but great.

Good one, Jim. This might be my garden at the moment, very wet and uncomfortable for the birdlife.

Just delightful Jim, I’m glad to say that where I am there is a very healthy population of these wee chaps.
