Birthday Birds

Since today is the birthday of my most-fabulous father, I invite you all to spend some time looking at his sculpture. Even if you’ve taken a peek at the gallery before, you might want to stop by again - new pieces are added all the time, and they’re all pretty spectacular. The photos really don’t do them justice, but they’re enough to give you a sense of the work, anyway. The last time I was in Massachusetts, I got to visit the Cape Ann Historical Museum, which is home to one of the largest of the birds - its wingspan is just about fifteen feet. The pictures are great, of course, but nothing really compares to walking around and underneath the pieces themselves. If location permits, you’d do well to go check out one of the places where they’re exhibited. Right now Gloucester or Freeport is your best bet, but it looks like there will be more shows this fall.
