A Motmot holding a pencil. The Motmot has a patchwork collar and green leg warmers. Knit beanie work in progress with a grey background and rainbow color work of shore birds. 2 Blythe's hornbills flying through a blue sky. There are two swift foxes. One is standing on all fours in front of a grid to show the dimensions of the average swift fox. The other swift fox is sitting on a scale to show the average weight of a swift fox. Text over head reads "Swift Fox Measurements"

My Pollinator Partnership 2026 annual poster contest sketch so far 😁🐛🦋
#art #pollinators #lepidoptera #insectart #poster
In the top left corner is the title which reads "Life on a Leaf: Caterpillars and Host Plants." On the left side of the poster is a sketch of an Eastern Cottonwood with an American hornet moth resting on the trunk. Directly above the moth is a close up sketch of its caterpillar stage. To the right of the caterpillar is a sketch of a swamp milkweed. To the right of the milkweed is a sketch of a Texas Live Oak branch.
