Around ten years ago,I cut down a wild White Spruce. You could hear the wasps in it from 200 feet easy, and it was next to our garden.From a piece of the inverted Spruce trunk, I chainsawed a sculpture of a head.Then I placed this head in the woods to season.Two years ago, I brought it out of the woods, and stored it inside.Tonight,I joined this head with a six fingered base made from 5/8" re-rod.If you pick "Singing Fingers" up and tap the top of the head, the six fingers of the base ring; but strangely, the wooden head rings. I was surprised by how efficient the acoustical coupling was between the wood and steel.When you hold "Singing Fingers" and tap a base finger,it makes a (wooden) bongo kind of sound and the head rings, just like the fingers.I think I know why the wasps chose this tree.This sculpture taught me many things, and I'm excited about applying my newfound inspirations.There is a clear sky tonight, and the stars need some look'n at.......Singing Fingers

I finally got feathers on Medicine Eagle. The picture is poor, I'll take a better one in daylight. His eyes are brass and held in temp for the picture. I made provisions to hang him like a mount, but after trying to lift him, I know the bracket needs to be made sturdier. Galvanizing is the plan.
