Holiday

[GingerPeach]

I bet some of you are doing this, too.  I have a minor version of my own.  Please share some of your own bird trees if you do this.

@Oznell, the bird tree made me think of you and your enjoyment of bird figurines.

This is Susan Branch's holiday bird tree that she just shared on her site:

                

Here is my very simple version - only four birds (but maybe that's all I need)  :

[Oznell]

Oh, both yours and hers are beautiful!  I love it when birds are substantial and even chunky.  And it's the ideal motif in a Christmas tree-- where else should a bird be on a frosty morning than nestled in a thickly-foliaged tree?

Although I love both, I give the edge to yours, @GingerPeach.. Your subtle color scheme is so perfect with that white flocking.  Also like your artistic accents of candles and then little trees and presents.  Your vignettes are so fabulous and well-thought-out!

[NickNack]

Very nice!  I prefer yours to hers @GingerPeach .

If you have a cat ,that might drive them nuts.All the birds on susans tree are pretty.

[GingerPeach]

You are so sweet, @Oznell  and @NickNack

@GingerPeach  How fun! Both trees look nice, but I like yours better

My sister did that she made a mini bird tree for her cat and placed it on the top level of the "cat tree"....she said the cat tree needed to be spruced up for Christmas and also to give her cat something to enjoy so she wont mess with her tree in her living room....

@GingerPeach 

I concur with the others....I like your tree better....beautifully done!

[GingerPeach]

You are so kind, @Susan Louise and @Spurt  

You get a kiss on the cheek, too.  

[GingerPeach]

Thank you, @goldensrbest 

I don't have a cat now, so I'm safe there.  Whew!

I'm surprised Susan Branch's cat, Jack, isn't all over her little tree.  He's very enterprising.
