My mom used to draw Birds in flight. I can do that also. But she could draw the Bird before it left.

Do you take any pictures of birds yourself? Also, if you have a camera, maybe you could take some pictures of your or your mom's drawings and post them. I bet those would really be good.

My mom has since passed away, but she put a pair of birds in flight on their garage doors. They sold the house , but I could probably ask if I could get a pic of them. Hopefully they will still be there. I will have to ask my siblings to see if they still have them, I have patterns of a pair of ducks in my storage. She would draw them and my dad cut them out of wood.
