Carrion Crow
A5 pad
This was probably my most challenging bird to paint especially the eye … 😝

Mexican gray wolf Taylor was captured north of I40 and relocated back into arbitrary bounds. This is the second time wildlife agencies have restricted Taylors movements.

Dispersal is necessary for Mexican gray wolves to thrive. It's time we let them roam. 🔗https://bit.ly/3JZKzYH
New Mexico Fish and Game Stops Wandering Wolf “Taylor” in His Tracks, Sends Him South for the Second Time
Conservation groups are condemning the decision by the New Mexico Department of Fish and Game (NMDFG) to remove a wandering male Mexican gray wolf from the northern part of the state late last week.

Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy.

For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy.

The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

🚨Latest News: The USFWS announced it will not move forward with a nationwide recovery plan for gray wolves, a major reversal from its earlier commitment.

The decision comes despite ongoing threats to wolves in parts of the West where state laws permit aggressive killing.

Enjoying point blank views of this gorgeous Firecrest at Sandwick, Shetland on Wednesday when it was joined by a second individual! Unlike their commoner cousins, Firecrests are much rarer here with only a handful of records every year.

The first painting in my Capybara Gargantua Collection, "Capybara and Fog"! Where would you expect to find a gigantic capybara?

#art #landscape #capybara #fog #sciart #painting
Painting made in Rebelle of a capybara as big as a hill sleeping as fog flows around it. The sun is setting to the left and the sunset colors the sky and fog with bright yellows, pinks and purples. In the foreground is some abstracted forest. The artist's watermark @joyousjoyfuljoyness and signature are on the bottom right.

A Dalmatian pelican digital drawing. The pelicans feathers are white with a grey, red and white striped beak. The reflection of it on the lake is slightly distorted. The lake is calm with mountains in the background. The sky is reflected on the lake and is a mixture of blues, oranges and pinks.

#Sunrise from Glacier National Park #imageandverse

Night surrenders
Silver mists linger
on the Fire’s reflection
Violet Mountains’ shoulders
Today’s present

#artyear #nationalparks #eastcoastkin #scape #landscape
The scene unfolds in the hush before sunrise. A still lake lies smooth as glass, perfectly mirroring the dark mountain ridges that rise above it. The peaks stand in shadow—deep violet and indigo—while the eastern sky begins to glow with the first light of dawn. Bands of soft gold and rose stretch across the horizon, their reflection forming a glowing triangle of color on the lake’s surface. A faint mist drifts just above the water, blurring the line between earth and sky. Stones in the foreground rest in shallow water, motionless. The world feels suspended in anticipation—the moment when night yields to day, and the mountains wait to be touched by the sun.

Many talented #Ukrainian actors, artists, comedians, sportspeople, and others left their professional careers to take up arms and defend their country from Russian occupiers.

Russia's war against Ukraine has taken the lives of at least 240 Ukrainian culture makers. This is a great loss.

Name this bird! 🤔 See Alt-text for clue 🔍 #NameThisBird #MyBirdcards | #birdsoftheworld #birds 🌏❤️🦜
"I'm a medium-sized, olive-grey Australian honeyeater that is well-known for my bold black stripe that runs from my bill, through my eye, and down the side of my neck, contrasting with my small, bright yellow ear patch. My name refers to my distinct, melodic, and varied song, which often sounds like "sweet-sweet-sweet-siew." What widespread and adaptable bird am I?" 2.5 Flash (Edited) 📷: Photo by pen_ash via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/users/pen_ash-5526837/

Hummingbirds are so adorable but also deceptively hard to paint 😮‍💨 I had such a hard time trying to capture the texture and iridescence of the feathers.

So many Ukrainian children have become so accustomed to explosions during the years of war.

Sound on, if you can.
