Art and Alfalfa: Mein Temperament Vogel

You will see why he is called Temperament Vogel



No words needed.

Now we're not sure.

My Father was a very fine woodcarver


My Father believed that something simple is just as beautiful as something fine.

He carved the bird for my office so my clients could tell what kind of mood I was in.  I'm now retired but the bird still sits on my chamber door.

...For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being

Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door,

Bird or beast upon the sculptured bust above his chamber door,

with such a name a "Nevermore"...

Edgar Allan Poe
