Thanks Sharon.  I wanted the bird to sit up high, and have seen a few people use inverted wine glasses in the past.

Thanks Linda.  I love the combination of blue and green on each feather.  I'll have to try to get a good close up of that.  I made them on wires and they are attached inside a straw in the body.  The ones on the head are directly inserted, as it won't be eaten.  :)

Susan! That is gorgeous! What did you use to hold the tail feathers?
