A Bird in the Hand - finished


































This carving in lime wood has surprised me, I didn't really plan it and yet it seemed determined to exist on a very "real" level. The chunky lad has a pony tail. I have found out that geese are very compassionate birds. If one of them falls out of the flock during migration, another goose will join the injured one, and stay with it until it heals and is able to fly again, or dies. Only then will the rescuer goose rejoin the flock. No goose will ever be left alone.
