One of my favorite birds. And most underrated, tbh.

We described two newly discovered species of digeneans (a type of parasite) found in South American bats!
This project gave me the opportunity to produce my first ever published scientific illustration, a lifelong dream of mine!

First post on Bluesky 👋
I usually draw birds, but this was my first real go at drawing a snake!

"Rubrum"
Watercolor & colored pencil, 9x12"
Inspired by an early fall hike at Mead Wildlife Area. Red-bellied snake (Storeria occipitomaculata) and red maple (Acer rubrum) leaves.
