Welcome to the {Bird, Bird, Bird is the Word} blog series.  Every day during the month of May, I’ll be posting a bird craft or bird-related item on my blog as well as placing that object on my wall tree.  I can’t wait until the end of the month when my tree will be alive with a collection of chirpy chums.

Today Blue the Bird came to stay on our tree.  Blue is actually a blue bird and is visiting on her way from Massachusetts.  She’s originally from Georgia, but went to Harvard to study law and liked the area so much she decided to stay.  She worked at a law firm until a few years ago when she started her own practice.  She has more control over her hours with her own practice so she decided to come and spend some time with us.  She has also generously offered her legal skills if anyone needs help.

In her spare time she likes to do the New York Times crossword puzzle and jigsaw puzzles.  She says the puzzles calm her after a hard days work.

Blue was made out of various colors of felt.  The decoration on her wing is made from sequins and her eye is a black bead.  She was stitched together with embroidery floss.

Here’s a view of the tree so far.

Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you tomorrow,

I could have gone to Harvard.  I know 17 words, I can tell time (breakfast, lunch, dinner time) and I’m the fastest tennis ball catcher on the block. What more could Harvard want?
