here’s to an excellent 2018!

Decembird2017 - 30th of December, Not a Bird, But as a Bird.

American kestrels fly into the wind to maintain a hover while they scout for food below. Without the headwind the kestrel cannot hover in place like a hummingbird, but they’re nevertheless amazingly acrobatic flyers.

saw a bird scratch himself with a tail feather so anyway here’s wonderwall

so here’s a raptor i’ve been trying to draw on and off lately, which is trill’s new weird shadow bird who can preen him while he sleeps so he can pretend he understands basic hygiene.

here’s a humboldt penguin looking victorian.

decembird for today is a preview of my etching assignment. I’ll pop up a full photo at a later date.
