Today’s bird is the Albino Ringneck Dove! And that’s all for #AvianAugust! I’m proud of myself for finishing this very fun challenge. #avianaugust2022
Starting the day off with a Curl-Crested Aracari for day 26 of #AvianAugust!
Oops, I forgot to compile week three of #avianaugust! I can't believe we're so close to the end... only four more days to go!
(still super proud of how the Marsh Owl turned out 😊)
Trying to get looser and faster with the colors so that I can still get them all done in time!
Here's day 16 for #AvianAugust!
I'm SUPER happy with how #14 turned out! Here's the Leconte's Sparrow for #AvianAugust!
And my final push for today's catch-up is day 13 for #AvianAugust! I never knew about Puffleg Hummingbirds but now I LOVE them!
Today I did Day 8 of #AvianAugust! What a cutie the Musk Lorikeet is! I'll try to do some catch-up over the weekend.
Day 18 of #AvianAugust! The Green Violet Swallow! Swallows are so pretty and I'm a sucker for a shiny bird. Bottom left is female, top right is male.

Day 17 of #AvianAugust! Caught up again! Time for A BORB! A very colorful one! Male coloration on the bottom left, female on the top right. Might revisit the White-Browed Tit-Warbler in the future. So pretty!

Day 16 of #AvianAugust! Fell behind again, but I'm getting back into it! Marsh owls are *weird* looking! And a bit difficult to simplify the markings of 1) because there are so many subtle variations and 2) because there isn't a lot there to begin with.

Day 15 of #AvianAugust! Fell behind again, but I'm getting back into it! Waxwings have been a favorite of mine since I was small. Their neutral body color mixed with those boldly patterned and colored wings is a really nice look!

Day 14 of #AvianAugust! Fell behind again, but I'm getting back into it! LeConte's Sparrow is such a simple little bird but so cute! I love your standard songbirds, they've got a familiar, classic charm to them.

Day 13 of #AvianAugust! Fell behind again, but I'm getting back into it! HUMMINGBIRDS! I love 'em, they're so cute and small and violent little things. I saw a lot of them when my family used to live in AZ. This is the golden-breasted puffleg, he has pants.

Day 12 of #AvianAugust! Fell behind again, but I'm getting back into it! I love blue herons, I've seen 'em around because I live in their habitat range. One was standing on a neighbor's roof once! They're bigger than you think.

Puffleg hummingbird for #avianaugust! This one in particular is a glowing puffleg.
Look at this distinguished gentlebirb rooking its fluffy trousers
can’t believe I almost missed #avianaugust!! Joining the bird gang with a quick drawing of some gang gang cockatoos
The Black-Billed Magpie for #AvianAugust! One of my favourite birds 😍 their wings remind me of the aurora borealis
Day 9 of #AvianAugust! The Little Auk (or Dovekie) is shaped like a friend. I would like to hold one gently cupped in my hand, it seems to be designed perfectly for it. But of course they are wild animals so I will not.
