new pattern

this is a new pattern that i might use soon. i generally don't put up my latest stuff as i just don't know where it's going yet. but this one i thought i might get some feedback on. what do you think of it?
it's called birds with berries. mmm

birds + more birds

i have done so many varieties of birds... here is a scattering of them.
i think they continue to be more + more popular. there just doesn't seem to be anything comparable right now with popular imagery. everyone is doing birds!
