New bird friends

PhotobucketPhotobucket
My sister surprised me at orchestra rehearsal on my 25th birthday with a little gift bag containing a picked wildflower, some brownie bites, and these cute knitted friends which she bought from the Aspen Saturday market. I was so busy that I'd actually forgotten it was my birthday, which made the surprise all the more poignant. These birdies remind me of her so much - especially the brown, limbless chicken torso, because we always give each other hilarious, utterly useless presents, and these are typical.
