Johan's Hummingbird in Flight

It's been quite awhile since I posted anything, but I recently did a "flying mount " of Johan Scherft's humming bird and it came out pretty nice. I was doing some paper roses and decided that the hummer would be a nice addition. We will give it to a friend next week for watering our plants while we are away.

The flying illusion is created by using music wire to attach the beak of the bird to one of the rose stems.

I'm a Hummingbird fan.
Nicely done.
That seems to be the same species we have here.

Thanks for all the kind comments! We've actually decided to take this one to my mothers house this week in Loyuisville. We will pick up a bottle of bourbon for our neighbors.
