One of my pieces for the @polarlightszine featuring Arctic Terns - the birds that have the longest migration route, going from one pole to the other and back in a year. Impressive little guys!
You can get this gorgeous anthology about the Arctic and Antarctic life on https://polarlightszine.itch.io/ and support a good cause 💙

Marchirp day 22: migration. Arctic Terns have the longest migration of any animal. They go from one end off the earth to the other, always chasing summer.

My personal highlights - 2023 - part 1:
I spent some days at the North Sea in May and it was amazing, so many birds (and hares) and perfect weather.

Day 21 of Marchirp: Nest
I made a card game called Nest and so I came up with Marchirp to motivate me to finish illustrating all 14 birds lol.

[Image ID: various birds in front of, inside, and above a nest under the word NEST drawn to look like the letters are made of twigs. End ID]
I'll have the printable version up on my Etsy soon but I wanna do a kickstarter for an official version eventually.
I couldn't come up with a good pun for April, but you're gonna see my anthropomorphized lizards for the next game I'm illustrating: Lizard Duel🦎

Arctic tern! They migrate from their breeding grounds in the arctic to Antarctica for the summer, traveling around 25,000 miles!
