A small wood carving of a tiny bird in golden brown perched on a branch, looking from right to left. There is a small branch protruding from that branch with two carved leaves. Above the bird are two further branches, one behind with four leaves, and one in front with two leaves. All of it is held between two scrolls of light wood, that form an oval around it. Held at the bottom by a finger and thumb. With a grey slate background.

Well it's done. So many hours gone. It's been the bane of my life for the last two weeks. So many broken branches! Hand carved from boxwood (bird and leaves) walnut (branches) and oak (scrolls).

A very small carving of a small bird, similar to a sparrow, perched on a small branch. The bird is shown in three quarter profile, and is carved in a golden brown wood. A small black looks out. The claws are visible on the branch. The branch is a more chocolate colour, and goes across the shot. It is being held by a thumb and finger, with a grey background.
