Here’s another #portfolio piece! I titled it “Dentist” and it is an editorial for an article about the benefits of office chit chat! I’m playing off the #nilecrocodile and Egyptian plover symbiotic relationship as well as with giraffes and yellow-billed oxpeckers! Why not both?🐊
Random side project of the afternoon: a little bird based on the Egyptian plover, except instead of crocodile teeth, she cleans dragon teeth. Gotta have extra gear on her to pick out troublesome bits of armor and weapons that get stuck in the gums.
Pacific golden plover (non-breeding plumage). During breeding season it gets a black plumage. Wonder how they recognize themselves in breeding n non-breeding seasons. At least this one retains its characteristic golden colour. #indianbirds #procreate #birdpainting #illustration

Still on egyptian plovers (I’m working on a project and need to learn how to draw them lol)
I did some trace overs to try to figure out the basic construction shapes (red) and then did a few studies(green)

Thank you @GovPritzker for declaring today #PloverDay in Illinois. The success of Piping Plovers Monty and Rose this summer is a major milestone in Chicago's journey to be a truly bird safe city. Join us in celebrating our successes and our continuing work to #bringbirdsback.
More retrospective uploads @Team_eBird can't believe its 14 years next month since sketching SOCIABLE PLOVER @RSPBEssex Rainham, a reserve in its infancy and look at it now! just checked @RareBirdAlertUK past records and only 2 since! must be due another!
Just finished the logo of my research project on the smell of the preen gland secretions of plovers in Madagascar.

Starting a PhD at @unibielefeld in Germany 🇩🇪, in @CaspersBarbara's lab! I will investigate hypothetical functions of the smell of the preen waxes secreted by some plover species in Madagascar 🇲🇬.
Feel blessed to embark on such an adventure ✌️
