Beautiful work Susan. Love how he is looking at the fruit, like “should I or shouldn’t I?”

Exactly! The fruit is over wintered crab apples. No doubt fermented on the branch. Amazing he can stay on there. 🙂 Thank you Mary.

He’s a new one on me, Susan, and he’s adorable! Wonderful colours and I like the watchful gaze.

Thank you Jacob! He is a north American bird. I like to think he is eyeing up one of those wee fermented crab apples for a snack. Surprising he can stay upright on the branch! 🙂

I googled them Rebecca and it would seem they are a North American bird. The UK has plenty of beautiful birds so don’t feel bad. 🙂

Nice movement and I love the red of the feathers with the red of the berries. (K)

Wow! Nice! I love the colors on this one… and don’t think I’ve ever heard of this bird before. But it’s incredibly lovely and well done, Susan! 😍

Thank you Charlie! Grosbeaks are common to this area of Canada. Not sure where else they meander to but no doubt a quick google will answer that one! 🙂

What a cute little bird, I don’t think we get them in the uk? If we do I have never seen one.

Thank you Rebecca. I am not sure if you get grosbeaks in the UK. They are pretty common in parts of Canada.
