Old Wooden Cardinal Cutout with Bright Yellow Painted Beak silver toned with what appear to be

with what appear to be handwritten numbers on the recessed wood tiles

I really like its combination of specific details and loose gestures

and wonderfully carved to resemble tools and weapons (these detailed pieces are worth more points when successfully removed in the game

and I really love those little black feet poking out from the bottom of the egg

Old Wooden Cardinal Cutout with Bright Yellow Painted Beak silver toned with what appear to beI had a great old wooden cutout bluebird in the shop a few months ago, found in Maine just as this Cardinal was, and I have a bit of a hunch they were made by the same person. The polychrome color on this one has similarly faded with age, especially the red, but I think it is all to the good in making for the perfect contrast with the still super bright and thick yellow paint on the beak. I do think this one would do a good job attracting other birds
