Amazing as always John. I'm sure the 150 year old barn wood had no idea it would end up as an extreme birdhouse :)

John, that is called talent, as Glenda said. We knew a woman once who could take a blank piece of wood and a woodburner and make the most amazing pictures you ever want to see. The first art she ever did was carving Ivory soap bars into animals when she was a little girl. God given talent.
