J W Bennett Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I forged a couple of hummingbirds last week to show the mother of one of my 4H students what was possible for an art project for her son next year. I've been working on finishing them in my "spare" time. Here they are ready to find new homes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petere76 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 JW, Nicely done and classy as well. As a table top art piece it will be a popular sale item. My wife has feeders set out for these little fellows and I am always fascinated by their size and speed as they dart around the gardens.
