Big Bird

[Wagamama]

Thats what I look like...or a lifesize yellow crayon. I finished painting my room yellow (the color is actuallu lemon zest, in case you were wondering) and I seem to have gotten more paint on myself than I did on my walls. I hope I don't have any unexpected visitors, I might scare them!

speaking of frightening...I thought this image with just BIG BIRD's LEGS and some man's torso would frighten or confuse some small kids...

I'm sure yellow is a great color on you wagamama

Isn't that Carroll Spinney? It looks like he is rehearsing.

Enjoy your yellow room!

That's right A&H's Mom!

Still, for me anyway, a little unsettling, like going backstage and seeing Mickey w/o his rubberhead on smoking a Camel and chatting on a cellphone

That's Rick Lyon.

He is one of the few people that perform (rarely) in place of Caroll Spinney.

yes, sorry-clarification-that photo IS from Mr. Lyon's site.

Hey that picture of Big Bird is fascinating. Where is that web site? I've been watching Sesame Street with DS for the past year, almost every day, and I've always wondered about the various characters. Do you have a site address with other pictures or info like that? Thanks!!

Follow the link! (I'm not sure if this has what you're responding to...some interesting photos though)

I hope you like it! I accidently painted our nursery too yellow the first time we painted it. It was legal pad yellow. We had to sponge on a white coat to tone it down.
