Ernis Nest

I am very late with posting all the wonderful Mail art pieces I got so I have to start now or it doesen´t make sense any more.

Some weeks ago Ernie sent me the answer to my mousenest. From the outside everything looked like a typical Erni message

But at a point of putting away paper I startet to be a little afraid, causewhat could be the answer on a mousenest? Maybe dead mice?

I packed, smelled carefully like a chemist drilled small holes, bigger holes, smelled again carefully like a atomphysician who generate Plutonium and loves lifeBut in the happy end I discovered a birds nest, and in the birds nest sparkled a green leave as a promise for life.

Thank you Erni.

The nest never expected to travel in the south, maybe some Zugvogel schnuppert eine Spur Heimat auf seinem Weg Richtung Süden diesen Herbst und weiß nicht woher.

Now, since some pals are gathered here and mentioning bees, please don't send me any as I'm allergic. Ok, thanks a lot.

Comment by DKeys on June 27, 2012 at 1:31pm: I hear the gears turning as Frieder decides what to send next-bees nest? gopher hole? ant farm?
