A Cinch

This weird bird was A Cinch to make:

According to Wikipedia, Cinch is an American trick-taking card game primarily played by four players.  Developed in Denver, Colorado in the 1880’s the card game went out of fashion with the rise of Auction Bridge.

The word, cinch has several meanings in the dictionary, such as easy and having a tight grip.

I thought it made the perfect subject for today’s weird bird!

Happy Weird Bird Wednesday!

Cheers! 🙂

    Great use of collage papers for this wacky bird. When I saw the word cinch I immediately envisioned a bird with a cinched in waist (not that birds have waists). 🙂
