Just bought a print of yours (809 of 1000) a thrush I believe, in St Mary’s county. Enjoying it very much.
My mother left me 8 of the 12 plates of Songbirds of the sourh. She lived with us for several years and passed in 1999. They have hung on my dining room wall for over 20 years. They are lovely.
