>Here is my latest birdhouse. I had to see what one would look like as an inside out turning. I also carved the roof and filled he cuts with brown shoe polish.

We may have Johannes Michelson coming to our next symposium so maybe I can learn to turn a wooden baseball hat. Then I'll have to put baggy pants below it's butt and I'll be on my way. What kind of bird do you put in a Ghetto house? Forget that I asked that. I already came up with the bird but for the sake of decency and PC I won't say it.

>All right. I see a birdhouse with the Louisville slugger logo on it. Or even better a Mark Sfiri regect from the bat factory bird house.

>Oh by the way the background is blue. I have to shoot a little kid dressed as an angel with a blue sky background tomorrow so I was playing with back ground colors. Couldn't resist shooting this piece on that set.

>This is neat, John. If I were an upper-class bird (I assume that's what this is for) I'd definitely check it out although I'd want a miniature big-screen TV included. Well, I'd make an exception if food and water were supplied, and the house was cleaned once in a while.

Dimensions?

>John,

I love the fact you made this look like a scarecrow....but it's to attract birds rather than 'shew' them away! Love the twist on that!

Nice job!

>That's very very nice. I agree with the comment about it looking like it's from a bat. That's really cool.
