“A beautiful sculpture”

We visited Baja California in January 2020, aboard a NatGeo cruise to visit the calving area of the Gray Whales. None of the sculptures available in the area match the craftsmanship of the gift received today...

“Incredibly Lifelike”

The piece is very beautiful. You can almost see the wings flutter as the hummingbirds feed. It was surprising to me how light-weight it is. And its amazing that it was created from what was basically trash wood.
