And yep-that was him ...Yes, it is a Brown Thrasher. And yep-that was him you heard. A few years ago I had about the same experience with one. He landed on my ground water rocks-natural water catchers for animals that I have in my garden. He just stayed on the edge of the water-I got a foot from him and he never moved. So I got my camera and took lots of pics. I have no idea what's going on with them- but must be they have dizzy spells!I didn't touch him of course, but I sure wanted to!<br />When I have an artist's block I always sort out something in my studio. Or take a nice walk.Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03982370018359352543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13828728.post-87114612086587197362018-10-18T08:33:22.295-05:002018-10-18T08:33:22.295-05:00I need another source for gourds. :) There are so...I need another source for gourds. :) There are some wonderful skellie ideas on Pinterest, and they are such fun. I'm wondering if the bird is the one I heard a couple of weeks ago when sitting outside. It was like a lecture--the bird went on and on, never stopping, varying syntax and volume for about 7 minutes. I timed him after I realized it wasn't our usual mockingbird!jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13828728.post-48497434684708345762018-10-18T08:28:34.282-05:002018-10-18T08:28:34.282-05:00 I agree that associating with creative people is ... I agree that associating with creative people is a jump-starter and it would be hard to do without blog friends and Pinterest where both ideas and techniques are shared!

Some people are like that. Thanks for the ideas of how to use those skellies. I stick them everywhere along with my crows. I tried to dry gourds a few years ago. I don't think I had very good luck with that. The neighbors have cats that I frequently catch site of waiting in the bushes to pounce a bird. But then the dogs see the cat and the race is on!!<br />xx, CarolCarol- Beads and Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062821517519300477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13828728.post-34269762495981034972018-10-17T22:51:29.321-05:002018-10-17T22:51:29.321-05:00This post is just full of creative fun.

Have a few printed and see what you can do with them. May I go so far as to suggest something fun and silly? After all, it was pretty silly to amuse the cats and then you. I assume he's a fledgling and needed a break from the hard work of flying. He's a lucky guy that you were nearby to save his tail-feathers!<br />Love, love, love the mantlescape! And you say your creative mojo is spent. <br />Mary Marcottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14569619947909529203noreply@blogger.com
