monseuldesir: Annunciation (detail) by Veit Stoss, 1517 - 1518, Sculpture, Polychrome limewood, St Lorenzkirche, Nuremberg, Germany I’ve had a bird on my head like that. Does that mean the Holy Spirit was talking to me?

I don’t think this is a mourning dove—I think it’s a very similar European dove. The mourning dove is a little darker in color and has some darker spots on it, and a blue ring around the eye. I could be wrong, though.

You know how people say jokingly, “Such-and-such is my spirit animal” (including fictional characters or the actors who play them)? I think the mourning dove actually is my spirit animal.

WAAAAAAAAANT…

artistic-aviary:

I mentioned a few days ago that I wanted to needle-felt a bleeding heart pigeon, and I decided to actually go through with it and finish him! <3 You can’t really tell from the photos, but he has a lot of ruffly detail on his back (and some on his front, too).

It took at least 5 hours to make this little guy, and he can fit in the palm of your hand. I exaggerated the heart on his chest because I thought it would be cute!

Here’s the original bird I based this guy off of:

I’d love to hear any feedback you guys have about him!

Oh— and does anyone have any suggestions for what his name should be?

This is a baby pigeon. Yes, they are this weird mustardy yellow color when small. And remember, folks, a pigeon is just a dove with bad PR.
