Swan is made from cream cheese with cheddar cheese beak and peppercorn eyes. OK, it could be a goose or a duck. It was supposed to be a swan, but cream cheese isn't a great medium for sculpture, and a thinner neck couldn't support the weight. Camera is made from yellow and white cheddar, and of course that is a Canon L lens, it's white cheese!
This is from a second session, after the bird had dried out and cracked some, requiring repair.
It looked better originally, but this angle is better, thanks to suggestions from a friend.

| Glad to see that it made viewers smile. Thanks for the comments, they're helping me to improve - like less sharpening, and less visual clutter from the plates. I had fun doing this, and I'm wishing for a real extra-sharp Canon L lens that is not made from cheese so I can do some real birding! |

| Probably just my sense of humor, but I found this the funniest of the lot. Since you used cheese and made me smile, I'm giving you a 10. |

| Cute set up, really, really cute idea. But it seems over sharpened to me (sorry, I don't mean that as a pun). |
