It must be spring! The Fox Sparrows are coming through. Today at the Museum we counted eight at one time! The Fox Sparrows migrate through Vermont in April and October as they travel to and from their breeding grounds in Canada. This carving was created by Bob Spear in 1997. #FoxSparrow #BobSpear #VermontArtist #SpringMigration (at Birds of Vermont Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNLuiYthqFV/?igshid=fx321ysuwm8s
In March of 2014, Bob Spear won Huntington’s Olga Hallock award for community service. One of his littlest fans made him a congratulatory card. #tbt #BobSpear #HuntingtonVT #CommunityService #OlgaHallock (at Birds of Vermont Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMnTQODBR32/?igshid=voihe9agv3ea
Although rarely seen, Great Horned Owls are the second most common owl in Vermont. Have you seen one? This one was carved by #BobSpear in 1998, and took him 180 hours. #GreatHornedOwl #BuboVirginianus #BirdCarving #WoodCarving #Owl #OwlsOfInstagram (at Birds of Vermont Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CL8G16hh0zl/?igshid=198fbedt2ox90
They are here! The Carver's Daughter: a memoir by Kari Jo Spear. "Growing up as the only child of a woodcarver with a passion for birds was strange enough. But when I acquired a sibling, life got weird--considering that sibling was a museum." KJS To find out more, pick up a copy today. The book is also available online and as an ebook. #vermontauthor #vermontstories #rootedinvt #mydadisawoodcarver #bobspear #woodcarver #vermontbyvermonters #vermontmuseum (at Birds of Vermont Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC_S7qrhvlv/?igshid=wc8mot3nhpqp
