What a year it has been! The pandemic put an abrupt stop to our regular schedule of fairs and markets. We’ve kept ourselves busy in the meantime by designing and making many new birds, and we will post them in the next few weeks. We are incredibly grateful for your continued support through online orders, and we can hardly wait to see all of you again this year! We’ve signed up for a few farmer’s markets and craft fairs this year and will post our events as they are confirmed. Stay tuned and come say Hi to our birds! Sincerely, Amy & Johnny

A clear look at the Western Tanager is like looking at a flame: an orange-red head, brilliant yellow body, and coal-black wings, back and tail. These birds live in open woods all over the West, particularly among evergreens, where they often stay hidden in the canopy. Nevertheless, they’re a quintessential woodland denizen in summertime, where they fill the woods with their short, burry song and low, chuckling call notes.
