Courtship

This was a gorgeous puzzle and quite challenging. However, about half-way through I spilled my morning coffee on it and destroyed it, and my work, in less than a second! BooHoo!!

I love the Cobble Hill puzzles! The picture is always crisp, the quality made puzzle pieces lock and hold. This puzzle was a lovely picture capturing the Arizona landscape and most admired quails who live in the wild and neighborhoods.

I had not worked puzzles since I was a kid until this year. This was the seventh I have worked (you could say I got hooked, and then there is stay-at-home). This is the next-to-hardest I have worked, with the Bobwhite Quail by Cobble Hill being hardest. The pieces are of reasonable quality for the price, although I think Ravensburger and Ingooood are better quality. However, Ingoood ones are apparently becoming collectors items given the price, and Cobble Hill has wonderful subjects. If what you want is a good puzzle to work and then take apart, it is fine. The pieces fit together well, but the colors are sometimes a little bit off compared to the box, particularly in the cacti.
