I am taking a bird course at the moment. Every day at six in the morning I start to listen to the birds (while I am still in bed), trying to figure out who is singing. Common blackbird (Turdus merula), House sparrow (Passer domesticus), Great tit (Parus major) and Black redstart (Phoenicurus ochruros) are the most common guests. Others are singing but I don’t know them yet…
The birds inspired me to make a new stamp collection. I decided to carve all birds from Switzerland. (And some cool once like the puffin). It’s the perfect way to learn them, because I have to study each bird in detail before carving. They will be available in my shop soon.
Any suggestions what bird I should carve next?
