An illustration for the opening chapters of 'Birds of Cork', before we get to the Systematic List. Some have birds in; some don't! This is a picture of Glengarriff Woods in west Cork

Great Shearwater for 'Birds of Cork', due out next year. When I was living in the county, I always hoped to experience a movement like the 5,118 off Cape Clear on September 15th 1965 - but it never happened!

Two 'heron' illustrations for the 'Birds of Cork' book - Little Egret and Grey Heron. In September 1989 I had to beg for a lift to see my first Little Egret, at Belgooly in Cork. How times have changed!

Goldfinch for 'Birds of Cork' (A4, oil on paper). So far I've shared 19 of these illustrations online, and I have another 11 in various stages of completion. That takes me up to the half way point; I'll shortly start work on some habitat paintings. :)

Another illustration for the 'Birds of Cork' book, this one a Wheatear. I'm still waiting to find one of these for my lockdown list ... but then again I haven't seen Cuckoo or Swift either. A4 oil sketch on paper, destined to be printed at a much smaller size.
