First post of a new blog software (ie. web log). Please forgive any formatting screwiness, I am still trying to figure out the layout options. This and a few other cosmetic changes have been made throughout the site. We now have canvas prints for sale as well.

Photography of them has been difficult. These small little birds rarely sit still. Go figure they would never land where I would want them too!
