"Couldn t give him away!"
I bought this with the intention of giving it to my adult daughter, who has cute little animal figurines on her desk and peeking out throughout her office. But when I unwrapped it to make sure he hadn t been damaged during shipping, I couldn t put him down. I sat there like an idiot, smiling and rubbing my thumb over his smooth little belly. Needless to say, I sent him nowhere. He is mine! The artist did a beautiful job, and there some other figurines of his that I will be adding to my bird collection.

"Beautiful Oriole"
I gave this as a gift and the recipient put it in a outside planter and it still looks good after a few years. He loves Orioles and happens to be a Baltimore Orioles fan.

"I needed this sweet Pink Robbin"
Thank your Mauricio! Your work never ceases to amaze me. I dont think I will ever truly have enough of your birds. This little robin flew all the way from Australia via your hands in Guatemala. I love learning all about new-to-me-creatures in the world, so I read all about my new little beauty.

"Soooo adorable !!!"
I fell in love with Puffins when we saw them off the Maine coast. They are just like Mauricio depicted, colorful and playful. It is a great addition to our Maine room decor. Perfect.

"Thrilled!"
This is my fourth bird carving by Sr. Morales. It is my second favorite! Lovely detail and expression. Have seen a. wild Snowy Owl once, as every so often they come down from the Arctic Circle to Maine when their food supplies run low after a population surge. This commemorates that very rare experience. Thanks for this beauty!
