My Mom continues to impress with her beautiful bird photography. She loves these little guys and both she and Dad are kept busy maintaining all of the hummingbird feeders they have established in their yard.

My dad found this miniature white oak ribbed basket in the trash! I always wonder how many incredible baskets have been discarded because someone didn’t understand their value and importance as a piece of American Folk Art.

A little throw back to the mid-80s when I had the honor of learning from white oak basketmaker Gertie Youngblood. I also had the honor of purchasing the little rectangular basket she is holding.
