day 2
“Jeremy Wade’s catch is taken by a real ”
Rhizodus hibberti
The scariest fresh water fish ever known to science. This monstrous lob-finned fish was 7m long and had some ridiculous 9 inches fangs half-buried in their 1m long jaws.

Happy Todays theme was survivor and these guys were recently downgraded from endangered to threatened! Long way to go but still good news for the 🐌

These are named for the dark band that runs along the “shoulder” of their shell

Day 29: Process

Common (Alcedo atthis)
Until 2020, I had no special relationship to kingfishers. But after ringing my first watching them intensely, handling them: This is one of the most incredible birds I know!

Day 28: Tiny

action!
Stripe-tailed Hummingbirds (Eupherusa eximia) and Violet Sabrewings (Campylopterus hemileucurus). It must be quite difficult to ring such tiny because of the size - and the super fast metabolism!

Ooh boy, this mistletoe is the most combined sketch ever. For days 23, 24, and 27: Arboreal, Circular, and Adaptable

Hoping I can catch up in time to do a full painting for day 30 - to close it off nicely, and because I got an idea that I really want to do

It's Day 28 in my neck of the woods.

This self-portraits begins an upcoming series of portraits of ancestors & others.
