This block had a Laughing Kookaburro sitting on the arbor but I changed it to a Carolina Wren. We have one that hangs around our yard chattering and checking all the plants for bugs. Check out this interesting You Tube video on the Kookaburro if you have a chance. Pretty interesting. Some of the other videos are neat because they have the birds "laughing." Go here to read a short excerpt about the history of the song you might have sung as a little girl. Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree...

This is so cute, Carrie. I've watched you do these blocks for a few months now; what do they make in the end? I used to sing a song when I was little girl about the kookaburra sits in the old gum tree...
So darling! I've been saving these - I really need to start them, I love them so much!
It has been so much fun seeing your blocks as they are completed. They are so sweet. I can't wait to see how you put them together! If she does do another BOM next year, I am definitely jumping on board. :)
Those are so darling, and I now will be singing that song the rest of the night!!!
These blocks are adorable. We've had a chorus of Kookaburra at our place the last few days. Apparently they've been waking up DH but I'd sleep though anything.
Lovely job! I'm a bit behind on mine right now, but hope to be caught up soon!
Hi Carrie--I have enjoyed doing the V.View blocks myself and am happy to hear she may do another bom next year. You have a pretty site and by the sounds a very "lucky" site--3 winnings all at once--WOW--I haven't won a thing--except a lot of new friends and lots of new ideas!!! I am in the Sig block swap also and I want to get to know all the other gals, so that when I get my blocks back I can truly say they are from my friends--so I will be back and I hope you will stop over and visit me sometime. Have a great day--Hugs, just, Di
Love your little Carolina Wren. I look forward to Cheryl's next BOM. Also, congratulations on three wins! Lucky you!

Great pieces Carrie. Could you imagine the noise from a flock of Kookaburra? LOL
