A great day to go to Costco! π
In a comic strip panel, person in a red shirt walks through a sunlit forest. The text says "Sometimes I go looking for a tiny part of the universe." "This part only takes up as much space as: half an apple, a salt shaker, or 2 ping pong balls." Each of these items is shown. Galaxies and stars swirl as the text says "But somehow, in an unfathomably huge universe," and then there's a complex mess of forest leaves, with one tiny Wilson's warbler in one corner, and the text says "this one tiny part". There's a close up of the warbler, blazing yellow against a sparkly yellow background, and the text says "can fill up my whole heart."
Another comic from this past year. Sometimes I'm in awe about how incredibly small birds can be.
Oh no! I experienced the same ordeal almost exactly 2 years ago. π§ Wishing for the best outcome for you. π
Thank you! βΊοΈ

Needle felted bird, plain all-black.
Needle felted 'Akohekohe bird, black with white, red, and gold markings, and a white tuft above the beak.
1. 'Akohekohe without hair and makeup.
2. 'Akohekohe with hair and makeup.

Three needle felted burrowing owl sculptures in a sand habitat. Left hand one is looking over its shoulder, middle one is looking up and the righthand one is looking down.
Meet my little burrowing owls.
Little needle felted sculptures made from 100% wool.

Eee! I love these so much! π₯°π¦
Thanks so much! βΊοΈ
A pair of needle felted Laysan Albatrosses.
Here's a pair of Moli (Laysan Albatrosses) that I made recently. It is impossible to make these "miniature."
Also, if your area has an election this coming week, VOTE, and NOT for GOP!

Is that Gollum?? π I love this!

An assortment of 63 needle felted Native Hawaiian bird ornaments at the Hawaii Island Festival of Birds.
Hope you had a chance to go to the Hawaii Island Festival of Birds this weekend? Almost 90% of my birds were sold out in half an hour after opening time. π€― Here is a pic of my table before opening.

See you tomorrow!
I love this!
The lemon! π π π
Yes! Needle-felted wool. Thanks so much. βΊοΈ
There is a limit of 3 birds per person this year. No orders taken at this time. After birdfest, I will only sell birds in my Etsy store as I make them, so keep an eye out for my posts for when they're available. Aloha! And hope to see you at the festival!
My last birds for Birdfest Hawaii are done! The extinct Hawai'i Mamo was revered by the Ali'i for their golden yellow feathers.
At Birdfest, prices are higher than last time. Supply is extremely limited. See comments for more info.

@holykoolaid.bsky.social delivers a striking eulogy for Charlie Kirk.
Factual. Documented. Well delivered.
Yay! See you there! π
We'll have to work hard to keep it that way! πͺ
It was Avian malaria. We now have the technology to eradicate this, and efforts are underway to save our remaining birds. This progress is always being hampered by science deniers, but we keep pushing forward to save the birds. This, and invasive predator control is what we are focusing on now.
I have not used ALT. π€ I will try next time. Thank you! βΊοΈ
This is not on the #AvianAugust list but it is similar. Hawai'i 'O'o went extinct long before Kauai 'O'o - some time in the 1920's. The yellow feather capes of the Ali'i were made from the 'O'o yellow feathers. Thousands of them. #AvianAugust2025 #NatureArt #WildlifeArt #FiberArt #SciArt #BirdArt
See you there! Please bring plush pueo! π
I love this!
Here are pictures of my glass Pueo owl mosaic before and after lightly being (tack) fused together.
This makes all the tiny glass shards into one solid piece and keeps the detail better than full fusing.
