Thank you very much Shelly and Goshka for your kind comments. The bird belongs to my daughter-in-law, Laura, and is actually green--I did a hue slider on it for the pink and purple monthly theme. The fruit is a red grape. He loves fruit. #2372565

Thank you Kate, Kay and Roxanne for your kind and generous comments. That before picture was not the same picture I worked from--but it is the same bird. What I mean is, I didn't crop him out of a small part of a much larger picture. :-) Mary :-D #2376647
