Identical twins on this one, croisette. This was my very first H scarf, purchased in Harrods in 1986. The start of my slide down the slippery orange slope! :amuse:

Elaine, Croisette, I have this one too but in a different colour. I love this scarf! Since there isn't a name on the scarf I always refer to it as my "little ducky" scarf. I'll try to post a picture later. In the meantime, keeping warm with a little help from Flamingo Party. :)IMG_2708.JPG

"Little Ducky" scarf... so cute! :lol:
This Flamingo Party looks fabulous on you, CBL; a perfect match to your glorious pink sweater!
 
Lovely scarves! And I was very interested to see Attelage tied, love the way the reins look like ribbons/streamers around your neck, very decorative. It's made me see this scarf in a new light, whenever I see it photographed flat, I like it but wonder if I will end up with a horse's bottom round my neck (so inciting rude remarks from my horrible teen boys).

Thank you, pudfish. This design for me has such motion and charme and came in beautiful color ways. Your Les Coqs is magnificent in these radiant colors.

Great cw- fresh colours and very flattering on you.

You have the sweetest fur babies! But I had no idea you had three! How lovely. [emoji250][emoji250][emoji250]

Thank you so kindly festus and Pudfish! (Welll....truth be told, I actually have more than 3 Pudfish.... :lol::blush: )

For Year of the Rooster here is my Les Coqs

Home run Pudfish!!!

I have lots of winged creatures and actually quite a few more actual birds than I first supposed.

I have 2 MPs but you know those so here are some lesser-spotted specimens

Echoing my last post that wasn't strictly for 'bird week' but so I don't repeat myself here are Napoleon's eagles on my orange border Napoleon

Tropical coloured beauties on what is DH's favourite scarf of mine

In Jardin there are birds a peacock and at least another flying (a Jay perhaps?)

Can you see the other blue bird flying against the green bush?

Flamingos of course!

Sadly I think these feathers on Les Plumes are probably all that's left of the birds from the 'hunting specialist' Henri de Linares

Not showing here the penguins but they there

Fantabulous papertiger!

Beautiful Croisette!

Everybody has such glorious birds. All I can find are these teeny wee ducks and swallows (?) on my Jardins d'Hiver

Love it! Nice eye!

I think these photos need to go in an H ad campaign! They are WONderful, Bcat!

hee hee- thank you Elaine! Bunnycat (the black fluffy one) would be a diva for sure...

One of my favorites!

Au coeur de la vie is one of my favorite designs- love all the birds and other wildlife on that design!
But thought I would show a bird scarf from 2016. Au pays de l'oiseaux fleurs. Birds everywhere you look.
DH picked out this CW! It is one one of his favorites.

LOL - Ha, ha - I love your comment on Henri de Linares. As birdwatcher & wildlife enthusiast I am always a bit horrified about the dead animals & birds he used as his themes. However, one always needs to view these things in context - Linares designed at a time (1904 -1987) when views of wildlife were quite different, and hunting was a common activity for gentlemen,etc.
I even remember when I was visiting Ranthambore National Park in India in 2003 to spot tigers that the lodge had a picture of Queen Elizabeth from the 1950's (or even earlier) that showed her & her party posing with 8 dead tigers from a hunt and I was shocked.......

Somewhere I read Linares co-founded a museum in France dedicated to hunting (I tried to find the info again for you but it hasn't come-up - but perhaps you know already). The hunting scarves chronicle Hermes' history too, showing the pastimes their customers were interested in, as you say not so long ago. Even now and in Europe hunting is often more than a pastime as many eat still what they hunt. I live on an estate most of the year, all sorts of people make their living from it directly or indirectly, and though I don't hunt, I appreciate it's part of country life. Only speaking on behalf of me but I'd rather be a bird living in the open and 'go with a bang' that endure some our modern farming alternatives.

Tiger hunting :nono: not with my name and not my little 'tiger cubs'

Detail from La Clé des Champs. I wish someone would identify all the birds on this carré! I think the one on the left is some sort of a titmouse, and the ones on the right look like finches, but I can't get any further than that. I'm a North American birdwatcher, so I don't know my European birds... :shrugs:

I think you're right! The one on the left looks like a crested tit and the others look like bullfinches
