A few more #birdaday #calendar #studies... Focused more on proportion/geometry/pattern and moving on than trying to get colors/details exact. (Okay, I did labor over the grosbeak too much--that gradient is so compelling though! I want to figure out how to get it right eventually.) #roughleggedhawk #snowgoose #whitebreastednuthatch #eveninggrosbeak #sketchbook #practice #bird #art #illustration Only six birds behind now! 😬

Rough-legged Hawk, Nov. 22, 2020 - I saw a rough-legged hawk down the road and was shooting some shots when a truck came along and passed me. It scared off the hawk. I was thrilled to see it turn and head right for my car and land in the tree right above me. This is the benefits of a sunroof. I opened the sunroof and took a few shots of it looking various ways. It then flew off. I love my sunroof!!!! #roughleggedhawk #hawk #birdofprey #sheriminardiphotography #algomacountry #birdingdaily #canonphoto https://www.instagram.com/p/CH6g0_nBF3k/?igshid=ju1v6jrgpswq
