This tomtit and its two relatives come flying every day to my balcony to eat.
I have made a feeding rack from 5litres plastic bottle, having cut out windows in it and having plastered edges with adhesive tape (what if the edges are too sharp for little birds' legs???) and hung out the rack out of the balcony.
Considering their activity and frequency of visits, soon the windows of the bottle will be too small for these gourmets.
It's a beautiful piece of artwork, and I congratulate you on the design of the bird feeder!
ReplyDeleteVery beautifully painted, I love the colors!
ReplyDeleteI love the bird feeder, a clever idea, I think I will make one too! Observing birds and their activities is such a pleasure and a rejuvenator for the mind, you got a beautiful painting from your observation Irina!
ReplyDeleteThe birds bless you.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely watercolor, the little bird is very well done. And a great idea to make a bird feeder from a bottle , awesome !
ReplyDeletebirds are so fascinating to watch and you've captured this one's energy and spirit in your little vignette.
ReplyDeletebeautiful bird Irina, with such a menu right there you'll probably have them modeling for you for a long time :)
ReplyDeleteBirds are so fun to watch. You are nice to take such good care of our little feathered friends to help them through the long cold winter. The painting is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteA lovely painting. It must be great to watch them each day. Hope they don't get too fat.
ReplyDeleteHello Irina,
ReplyDeletebeautiful bird, lovely watercolor!
A big hug
Irina! At last I have found you again! I missed looking at your posts. Some how, don´t ask me how, you got mixed up with another one also called Irina. I´m so glad I found your blog again!
ReplyDeleteBy the way; I love your bird. These guys are actually very smart. I had one of these living in my house for some time when I was a kid.I gave him food inside our house. No, I´m not only telling a story. It´s true. I must tell this story on my blog some day... If I only could find the one and only photo of this little fellow to show you all...
Beautiful colors. You have made some great feathered friends!
ReplyDeleteIrina, he's exquisite! Clever idea for a bird feeder!
