Description
A little wooden, handcrafted bird, with bright blue feathers and glued on colorful sparkles for highlights, is sitting inside, right in the corner, of this window for passersby to enjoy. It's attached to the side of the window by a twisted wire. The window frame, which is painted a deep blue-green, has clearly been painted over many times, and the textures of previous layers and weathering are evident. To complete the rather rustic scene, an old-fashioned lace curtain is pulled back just enough to provide a sweet frame for the bird. This seemed to me to be one of those open-ended scenes for which the viewers can have the pleasure of providing the back stories of their choice.
