Bridbird: These three lovely ladies are female Satin Bowerbirds. The male of this species of Australian bird is an amazing blue colour and is well known for it’s bower building abilities and collecting of blue objects to make himself look even bluer. But! I personally think the females, with their lovely olive green plumage, are the real beauties.

These are lovely!
You have a very nice site. I've just recently jumped onto the handmade wagon. Trained as a fine artist in drawing and painting, I'm amazed by the skills other people have (i.e. the skills I lack).
I love your site! I'm especially fond of your seagulls book! These two, the olive green beauties and the fish, are wonderful as well!
Thank you so much for featuring my gocco prints and for all the lovely comments!
