Crochet bower birds

bowerBirds

Here are a few of my little Bower birds stuffed with lavender.  You can find the tutorial at Attic24 where Lucy also makes the bower for her birds to sit on.  A couple of these have flown to new homes already so I might make a few more.

Dad really enjoys watching the birds at the feeders and bird bath from the conservatory window so I didn’t go for a historic cars or sports theme but instead went for these wee birdies having a sing song on the cherry tree.  My parent’s garden is absolutely full of baby birds at the moment all chattering away and I too could while away the hours watching their antics.
