Vintage Thingies Thursday with Coloradolady http://coloradolady.blogspot.com has returned in all its glory. After a little reprieve from the blog world, Coloradolady is back in full force. She was with us last week for a special post honoring our great friend. However. today is back to the basic vintage finds.
This is my last post on my vintage bird figurines. All of these were bought in the 1960-70 time frame. The ones featured today are in nesting in this built in book case. This book case is vintage as well. My house was built new in 1964 and it has not been changed.
As you an see, this is a Limited Edition Blue Jay. These are the markings on the bottom.

I noticed they all have flowers except for the pelican. They made me think of state birds and flowers, though I don't know whether that is what your birds represent.
I've loved them all and think this is a really beautiful collection!
I agree....your collection is beautiful. You must have been getting these for years. They are definitely treasures, and I am so glad you decided to share them with all of us.
Hugs,

Congratulations on winning that quilt - you really should play the lottery. Your figurines are lovely. Love the blue jays.
LV,
I just finished the most wonderful book about a ninety year old lady that loved birds all kinds. She spent her life taking care of them all year long from hummingbirds, to the birds she met on her morning walks.
I love this collection you have and the mockingbird is my all time favorite! I love to hear his unique calls.
Love and Hugs ~ Kat
I just saw where you won the giveaway... CONGRATULATIONS!
It certainly went to one wonderful and deserving lady.
Hugs for the second time tonight....

What a great collection, LV - I adore birds, and enjoy watching them out my window. There are so many different birds in the world, if I collected them, I'd not have enough room in my house!!!
You have a beautiful bird collection, LV...Christine
What a lovely collection! Now I need to take a closer look at some of the "dust catchers" I inherited from my aunt.
They're all beautiful but I love the hummingbird!
Your birds are so pretty! I love that you call them dust catchers! I have a lot of dust catchers, too, in my house.
Oh boy, more birds. I love the cabinet and your collection of birds is right up my alley. Pretty and they look great in your cabinet. The pelican is one I do not have. I been get looking. smile.
Hugs, Jeanne
The only birds around here are two small glass flamingos! But these are pretty! what made you start collecting birds?
Oh, I remember these birds growing up, but I remember coming by and seeing which new one you had added! They are all so unique.
Congrats on the quilt....could not believe it!
I always admired those kind of figurines. You have a lovely collection.
I love the birds. I have two and I cherish them. I have a cardinal and a bluebird. My mom is 82. You both are beautiful. I'm 62 and I try to take care of myself so I will look like Mama when I get her age. You have a lovely blog. Doylene
Awfully pretty dust catchers!
What a lovely collection! I"m so glad you have them grouped together too! My favorite of course is the bluebird!
You have a great collection. They are all beautiful. Did you pick them all out? Are some of them gifts? Congrats again on the giveaway.
