@SteelySeabirder Here’s a drawing of some guillemots with a single great auk, drawn to commemorate the killing of the last great auk or Garefowl on st kilda some 200 yrs ago.
The living wall with #garefowl . A commission as a present that I can share now it has been successfully delivered. Words from “huia” by @pacificraft #guillemots #greatauk #auk #livingwall #extinct #drawing #seabirds #cliffs #summer

Great Auk - Pinguinus impennis- Garefowl - the last known one in the uk was killed in 1840 on st kilda, when 3 men out on one of the stacks convinced themselves that it was a witch and had summoned the storm that held them fast. #drawingaugust #charcoal #auk #seabird #nomore
It’s all going on here: glacial erratics, Iron Age broch in a loch, with Viking extensions. Runrig field systems, 19C crofting field systems, incoming rain and st kilda somewhere out there. Moor, machair, shore. #drawing #sketchbook #ink #uist #artist #dailyexercise #west
