A Mueller-engraved Feathursday
Here are some wood-engraved birds by Spokane, Washington printer and printmaker W. Gale Mueller (1927-2018) from his Forty Years of Birds ‘n Blocks, printed from the original blocks at his Millstone Press in 2009 in an edition of 53 copies. From 1969 to 2009, Mueller and his wife Bonnie sent holiday cards with Gale’s original bird prints using several relief print processes. He came to prefer wood engraving after 1986. Today we show engravings from 1996-2003. For those who want to know more about these birds, here you go:
Common Raven (Corvus corax)
Black-capped Chickadee (Poecile atricapillus)
Hooded Merganser (Lophodytes cucullatus)
Snowy Owl (Bubo scandiacus)
Belted Kingfisher (Megaceryle alcyon)
Our copy of this book is a gift from our friend Tony Drehfal.

Happy equinox tomorrow! Here’s a chickadee (from another year) gathering fluff from a cattail to line its nest with. Spring starts tomorrow here but lots of birds are well into their spring activities. And happy autumn equinox to those on the southern hemisphere!
