Love the moody tone to the original photo! Shame I have very few grey pencils, it's not so easy to capture the subtleties! Enjoying the process of telling my brain *not* to draw every single feather as well XD

Some amazing birds ❤️

🦜🪺🌿🍃

As I’ve been known to do when I have a head that needs clearing, I headed out in to the Smoke Creek Desert this afternoon.  As is also the case 100% of the time I hoped to see wild horses, burros, or pronghorns.  As is ALSO the case about 80% of the time I saw none of those   But, among the things I did see were these two pairs of cinnamon teal, which I hope I don’t need to tell you, are are absolutely typical high desert wildlife (yes, I’m being facetious). This little patch of Rush Creek just on the Nevada side of the state line seems to be providing a nice little oasis for these waterfowl.   I’ll provide a screenshot of the satellite image courtesy of my camera’s GPS to show that I was INDEED on a drive in the desert at the time.  The little #50 is the approximate location I was when I grabbed this frame.You just never know what nature will show you if you get out there!

...I totally forgot to post the final of my screech owl! I had an encounter with a screech in my back yard a little while ago - she was sitting on a plant pot at knee height - and in the total darkness I nearly blundered into her. I don't know who was more surprised. She definitely made this face at me before flying off.
