Quimper Hittys

Min clambering on the lighthouse door

.

At 5 1/2 inches, Min is smaller than a Hitty,  but she does hang around with them…She was carved by doll artist T C Vollum. She came to live with us at Christmas 2010, and because of her small hopping personality, she is named after the small hopping birds Psaltriparus minimus which swarm all over our birdfeeder in winter. This picture was taken on a walk to the lighthouse at the end of the breakwater at the entrance to the harbour in Victoria.
