One a Day from Toronto: Inuit owlies

Inuit owlies

Another look at some of the art from the Museum of Inuit Art. I must admit, the bird sculptures were my favorite and I especially like owls.

I probably won't be back. I have been here a number of times and became a follower. How many times have you been to my blog?

Since I was hacked I had to give up my old user name and the blogs that went with it.

So this is the new birds blog and I hope you can come visit. Birds Birds Birds and Birds; 24 March, 2012 08:25

Halcyon said...: @Regina - yes, these are from stone. I believe the teeny tiny ones I showed earlier were animal tusks (walrus, etc). But to be honest, I don't remember and I can't find any info on their website.

@Paul - they only allowed photos with no flash. Many of my shots didn't come out.; 24 March, 2012 11:52

I hate the new word verification. Since I have trouble reading those "words", I am assuming others do too.
