Female Western Tanager Posted by: awmarker
Video duration: 34 seconds One of the viewers of this video identified this little yellow bird as a female Western Tanager. (My thanks for the identification. She, and presumably her mate, have been bathing in our backyard waterfall. Please ignore the title on the video that identifies it as a Warbler, that was my inexperience at work.

DIY type of person? Well, I've done small scale projects before but my brother and father would laugh at the notion. No, I did this one pretty much by the numbers with the instructions from several books and the kit itself. The challenge wasn't technical, really since the kit was reasonably self explanatory. The challenge was more stylistic. I had to go through several dry runs in laying the stones to make sure was going to have the effect I wanted. Good luck with yours!

Great video, we are looking at putting one of these in our yard. Are you a DIY type person?

Very nice to see -- the sound of the water gives one the impression that it is much bigger -- almost expecting to see a raft coming over the waterfall. :-) When can the world expect the next offering from AWM Productions? Cheers Kim
