Now THAT'S a Bluebird

Today the bird became a bluebird. You can tell it is not a wren, not an eagle, nor a hummingbird. So far, so good.
Reduced abdomen, moved legs waaaay back, rounded the head fore and aft, separated the wing tips, refined the wings to make them straighter, and sweated bullets over 'getting it right'. Talk about separation anxiety. Separating those thin tail feathers about gave me an ulcer. Have to admit I chickened out and did a lot of the final finishing with hand sanding. I wasn't about to take a chance of nicking a finished area. The tips of the tails are cross-grain and very delicate, so they will have to be handled very carefully. I support the delicate parts with my fingers while working on them.
