    Yes, it's kind of macabre, not for what he is doing, but for his look. It gives me the creeps.

    This is awesome, and very much like a blackbird. Not my favorite birds, really....
    Your art piece is excellent, Judy.

    I wouldn't say "macabre" but maybe "nature in the raw". Life ends and life goes on. A great take on the blackbird theme.
