Wilson's Warbler Bracelet

A Bracelet with a Story to Tell™: Wilson's Warbler Bracelet Inspiration: According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, adfg(.)alaska(.)gov, “These Chickadee-sized Warblers are easy to identify.  Wilson's Warbler has olive-green wings and back, and the face, breast and underparts are yellow.”   What exactly is a Warbler?  According to a-z-animals(.)com, “Warblers are so called because of the trills of their song.” Wilson’s Warbler is one of the smallest warblers in the USA.  Interestingly, Western populations of Wilson’s Warbler tend to be brighter yellow than Eastern populations.  Curious!   It was announced on November 1st of 2023 that the American Ornithological Society will no longer name birds after people in North America.  Wilson’s Warbler is one of the birds who will renamed.  He is currently named after the 19th century naturalist Alexander Wilson.  My personal opinion?  I think that’s foolish, but.   Alaskan Interpretation:  As always, our Birds of Alaska bracelet is reflective of the male bird.  I used three black matte beads to represent the black cap of his head.  Next, you will see two large yellow recycled glass disc beads to represent the yellow face, breast and underparts of the bird.  The Grey Saucer Natural Wood Beads represent the gray feathers of the wings and tail.  I finished each end of the beaded section with a Yellow Jasper bead representing the tiny hints of yellow in the tail.  We chose gray leather to finish off this bracelet, but gray, black, and brown is available.  Your choice!
