We have many "rolliers" here in summer! I am happy you could continue to create so beautiful models in spite of all the difficulties and I hope your wife will feel better and better!

Thank you very much Alain, for your kind words!      
For the bee-eater, I have seen real ones only at the zoo, super scarlets, to be made one day in miniature.

Thanks a lot guys;      
Here is another image of my bee-eater with a miniature bee from Safari Ltd mini.
I finally found them, I had put a dragonfly as a replacement    
Yes Christophe I will post a picture of all my home made bird models together one day.
I have to find the time; Because they are some integrated in a window a little loaded now and others in boxes....
Maybe spring cleaning???

Thank you Andreas

Friends, I present to you a newcomer to my aviary.        
My collection is enlarged by a magnificent giant Argus created by an artist Tarit Kittikhun: TANIMAL,  very talented Thai.    
He creates magnificent 3D figurines, I traded with him. I bought the painted giant argus ,because it has been a big wish for a few years now and other unpainted birds.  
Andreas and other people have also acquired it, I hope they will share some images with us too!
