It's starting to take shape. You can already see something resembling legs. This week has been hectic and I haven't had the chance to stitch much. I've been working on my backyard birding setup and that also took some of my free time. We also rescued a pigeon. I'll probably stitch while keeping it company so progress might come faster.
That needle minder is hell on earth! Really fits the vampire theme.
Meet Domino. Disappointing pic but that's the best my partner could take at twilight with an almost dead phone. I think it really likes my old pullover that I was intending on throwing away. Its wing is bruised/hurt and the leg is broken. Vet said it's not going to make it in the wild with that leg but it might fly again. He said the best I could do is adopt it. The poor thing probably won't fly outside without a leash and supervision though.
As much as I love cats, I hate it when owners let their cats roam outside. They prey on birds for sport, not for food. I know exactly whose cat did it, that's why I'm salty. It's not the first time he's done that. Also I have a cat at home which might make things interesting. So far he's shown curiosity but not predator behaviour as he does with other birds. Not going to risk it though!
