Love these guys! I've banded a whole lot (now considered Pacific Kingfisher and Micronesian Kingfisher in our data). This illustration is based off a Pacific Kingfisher I banded on Tutuila in American Samoa. #sciart https://t.co/VDA49cz7Lv
Full disclosure I made these because I wanted pillows for my new couch, but now I want them as shirts and stickers and everything else too.
So... I'm really just enabling myself here. https://t.co/P6rCHv2Ec0
A pair of American Kestrels, North America's smallest falcon. Female left, male right.
Made a very simple little crow template for my pumpkin this year, and I'm sharing it in case anyone else wants to give it a go!
24 hours to go! Here's a fun set - a few other species I tested out when trying to come up with the box cover. Clockwise: Black Sicklebill, Broad-plumed Lophorina, and Wilson's Bird-of-Paradise.
The Red Bird-of-Paradise in particular had a lot of refining and rendering between stages. Believe it or not, I only spent roughly 3 hours per card, so it was a real exercise in nailing down details quickly and moving on to the next one. #sciart
Sketch vs final: birds of paradise style! I know people enjoy seeing a peek into the process like this.
Only about a day & a half to go on the kickstarter! Thank you all so much for the support. This game is a dream project in #sciart!

When I'm not shilling for my own game I do lots of bird, insect, fantasy, and other illustrations. Find more at my portfolio: https://t.co/3F2TFv0Zcw
Last of my birds for the week! The Red Bird-of-Paradise is a close relative of the Greater! The upside-down display posture really shows off those red feathers well. #sciart
One week to go on the Birdwatcher kickstarter, don't miss out!

Meanwhile, here's what's going on in Grouse House! Almost finished with the birds, so this is the last in-progress update! I'll post the full thing when the @InstBirdPop annual report is published!
