So I’m now working on a birdfeeder. It required shingles on the siding, just like a regular house. Suffice to say, I won’t be doing shingles on my house. After cutting each little piece from a block of nice mahogany, I epoxied them on one by one. More pictures, and maybe some action shots (complete with birdies) coming soon.

Birdie Birdie up so high,
Why’d you do that in my eye,
Gee Gosh Thank God that cows can’t fly….

So I finished my bird feeder. What I can’t understand is why they aren’t coming to eat. Don’t they think the lovely mahogany shingles are da bomb? What about the fine cypress and plywood and cedar construction?

It’s For The Birds I guess.

Update February 28th, 2006: WE HAVE BIRDIES! Confirmed birdie sighting!
