The orange-cheeked waxbill is native to where I live on the U.S. east coast and it does look like the one I was photographing. What threw me off is I have a lot of american goldfinches and a finch with a solid red face and speckled brown body. I knew those were finches but this one kind of reminded me of a small cardinal. I have a ton of cardinals so that's good to know that they are almost as big as their parents. I'm sure some that I thought were adults were this years babies.Carverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05968919406427737503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32749386.post-27131219501358836072008-06-28T11:26:00.000-04:002008-06-28T11:26:00.000-04:00oh, I forgot, baby cardinals are almost as big as ...oh, I forgot, baby cardinals are almost as big as their parents and they don't have orange cheeks, they have crests and also has darker feathers.<BR/>Orange cheeked waxbills have paler feathers, orange cheeks and they are elusive and timid so they are not often seen. they are small, probably 4" in length.Save "our" Earthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12111350631741437919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32749386.post-16193303660417947232008-06-28T11:18:00.000-04:002008-06-28T11:18:00.000-04:00Carver,it's some kind of finch,though I'm not sure...Carver,<BR/><BR/>it's some kind of finch,<BR/>though I'm not sure if this particular specie resides at your place.

I have a bunch this year and although they aren't ripe yet sometimes I make gratins with green ones.<BR/><BR/>Hi Dee, I agree with you about blogs being for us. I know mine has been therapy of sorts for me. Just getting it all out helps. I already emailed my mandalas and will do a post in early July.<BR/><BR/>Hi David, I think the bird in the 4th picture is a baby cardinal. I may be wrong since it's about 1/4 the size of the adults but since I know several nested in my yard and it has some similarities to the female cardinal that was what I was thinking. I'll have to look up the bird you mentioned. I'm not familiar with it.Carverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05968919406427737503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32749386.post-5824704352156814092008-06-27T06:29:00.000-04:002008-06-27T06:29:00.000-04:00th bird on the fourth picture looks like an orange...th bird on the fourth picture looks like an orange cheeked waxbill..<BR/><BR/>Ciao,<BR/>DavidSave "our" Earthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12111350631741437919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32749386.post-47691706701850401562008-06-26T20:16:00.000-04:002008-06-26T20:16:00.000-04:00Heya Carver,You know, your blog can be whatever yo...Heya Carver,<BR/>You know, your blog can be whatever you want whenever you want, so if you need to get some things off your chest (like saying you're not a medical professional) and then recapping everything that happened with you LND, then go for it. I think it's healthy. Also, it can be really really helpful for someone else out there. Blogs, though, are as much for ourselves as for other people. <BR/><BR/>I saw your comment on my blog - are you going to post your mandalas? I need to get cracking on the July one .. . and bug Jeanne and NYC Jeanne who both agreed to do one.

I can see that the Etsey store is better for cards etc. I'm never sure about commenting so I appreciate your kind words. I enjoy your work so much.Carverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05968919406427737503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32749386.post-37890399065082024282008-06-26T07:39:00.000-04:002008-06-26T07:39:00.000-04:00all the best to you always Carver.

It took me awhile to find him hiding up there. I posted this lovely poem with it because it made me feel very meloncoly about being lost in the woods and looking up and finding a bird seeing you there. He is a wonderful poet from chile...<BR/>anyway; I answered on my blog but wanted to say here re: the tiles...<BR/>Carver; Thanks for your notes. I don't know why I was so reluctant to say prices; I was worried about doing it properly. Then some kind folk pointed out that to not say what I was asking was a real turn off so I have been working a bit on descriptions, the reason that I do a piece a certain way, some of the history of some of the pieces and the prices. It has been very helpful to actual work through that process. <BR/>Anyway; I wanted to say that I am working through some issues on my blog and I still have about ten tiles that I have not put up yet; working through some glitches first and then reposting some unsold pieces again without the glitches - that should take a week or so; then there will be the posting of the new pieces - another week and a half. I plan on adding a page soon which will have the unsold tiles on them so it won't take so much work to dig through them all to find out which are sold and which are not. It should make a much smoother process for those considering buying to make the choices. <BR/>I am not putting these in my etsy store as I think that etsy isn;t a good choice for them; I will only sell them on this page and on the soon to be added extra page off this page. I also add them to a site called Marketplace Daily Art in the left hand column, listing the ones that I list here. I will probably use etsy only for things like cards etc. I have found through trial and error that etsy is only helpful for me on a small amount of product.<BR/>As always I appreciate your kind words and comments. It is words like yours that help me get out of bed and look forward to creating and trying something new and different. So thank you for your never ending support!<BR/>JacqueAscenderRisesAbovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04635424605245677136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32749386.post-19540603303715557622008-06-25T14:23:00.000-04:002008-06-25T14:23:00.000-04:00All your shots are so beautiful, Carver!
