This is a field guide of sorts that I started in 1997 after finding an antique book with a color chart for bird identification. I painted the colors on paper pieces and arranged them in a rising and falling rhythmic pattern. Later I added sonograms and mnemonics of bird song or calls corresponding to the colors. A list of the 34 birds is on the back page and is numbered lightly on the preceding pages. (Lauri)
