Could have sworn I asked to be a part this feed already but maybe not 🤷♀️
I love drawing bird feet SO much! This little one’s delicate balancing grip was a delight to draw.

American redstart
My favourite of our warblers!🖤🧡🤍
Oh they are so fun. Redstarts flash bright patches on their wings and tails, orange on males and yellow on females to flush out bugs to eat. So these beautiful little ones can be seen flapping and fanning, working hard for tiny snacks

In support of @bfck.bsky.social I lent a junco drawing to a T-shirt. It is the first time my art has been on a tee :)

It is our lovely pup’s 6th birthday today.
Dogs are beings of all the feelings and sometimes all the love and happiness overwhelms Cookie, but she is such a good girl.

I voted yesterday
We walked to our advanced polling station with our neighbours
We arrived a few minutes before the polls opened, there was a line up of about 20 folks
When leaving the line up was over 100 people
And yes the pencils are normal ✏️ 🖊️ 🗳️

Two things about pelicans
1. By Dixon Lanier Merritt
A funny old bird is a pelican.
His beak can hold more than his belican.
Food for a week
He can hold in his beak,
But I don't know how the helican.
2. That “horn” thing on their bill is called a CARUNCLE (such a good word!) or a nuptial tubercle

I would love to sketch out a Mere doll for the trend all over the internets but without the machine learning and AI thievery, but I have no time and the flash in the pan will be over when I do 🤷♀️

Wishing everyone a peaceful evening as we continue to fight for our democracy.
I’m in the final weeks bringing together a huge volunteer effort to engage the public about Kitchener being a bird-friendly city & why this is important for all (not just the bird-obsessed)
It has triggered every perfectionist fear in my entire body
But I’m also proud of myself

A year ago I drew a Cuban Tody.
Cute, super green and a delight to draw for a friend who fell in love with these borbs when he went birding in Cuba.

How to tell a raven from a crow. An older guide I made with Dr Kaeli Swift. And yes that's an aileron roll, not a barrel roll, but only us nerds know that :)
