The edition # you get will rarely ever correspond to how many have sold, or your order placement. More Scrub Jays have sold than the edition of the Bushtit, that being said, I wouldn't be surprised if the bushtit lasted until tomorrow, if not a couple days longer. The higher edition on the Scrub Jay was more of an experiment to keep a bird in stock for a bit, for people who don't ever have a chance at getting a bird.

cool looking bird/print. i'm so late to this series that i'll probably have to pass out of fear or becoming a completionist. this series really turned into something amazing. i dont really remember when it began or what i thought, but i do remember the day my eyes lit up after seeing several sales for 1k+. way late to the game. enjoy yourselves. my fav is probably the Ruby Throated Hummingbird.

I'm tempted. I like the Western Scrub Jay and may grab both today. I'm on the fence. 101 Western Scrub Jays left, say people wondering how many were left in the last page or 2.

Mike's work has grown on me a lot. I watched his fanbase grow, but I wasn't feeling the portraits, birds, and foodie prints. But when the Throwing Axe Avocado print came out, I had to have it. Loving avocados, and thinking kitchen art, and getting an easy two thumbs up from my favorite girl, that was a no brainer. I ust need t frame it. And Mike just needs to make more prints for the foodie series.
