Bird identification is so fucked up in a really fun way you can’t understand until you get into it. For example, there is a type of goose called the cackling goose that looks exactly like a Canada goose except smaller and “cuter”. The cackling goose is way, way, more rare in most places than its relatively common cousin, so it’s on tons of birders life lists. Everyone wants to see a cackling (look in any bird ID group to see lots of hopeful people posting petite Canada geese). The two species regularly commingle, so sometimes a flock of those common parking lot birds will have the equivalent of a Pokémon shiny just hanging out in the middle of them.
How ridiculous and fun is that? I can never look at a big group of Canada geese without scrutinizing their ranks for an adorable little extremely rare cutie pie cackling goose. It reminds me a bit of mushroom harvesting minus the risk of death if you get it wrong

wanted to share some of my bird art i made before coming to tumblr! i’m a huge bird fan <3 some of them were either made digitally, with acrylic paint, colored pencil, or pencil. the heron mosaic piece was actually made with cut construction paper!

one of these things is not like the others....the cackling goose (Branta hutchinsii) was once considered a subspecies of Canada goose (Branta canadensis). they have overlapping ranges and nearly identical plumage, but are significantly smaller than most Canada geese, with more compact features and higher-pitched vocalizations.
#id in alt#birds#canada goose#cackling goose#your suggestions#from an old suggestion batch for which i didn't save usernames#and i made this more about the cackling goose than the canadian but nevertheless! hope u enjoy it whoever you were#animal art#wildlife#digital art#illustration

The greater sage grouse, which once numbered in the thousands in Western Canada, is coming perilously close to vanishing from the Prairies, new government research shows.
Known for its unusual mating dance, the species — found in areas where sagebrush grows — has been endangered for decades.
The round-bodied bird is among the species most at risk in Canada. The latest data from government conservationists provides little hope for their future.

one of my favourite shots from yesterday's outing at the lake
#my photography!#bird photography#birding#birds#canada goose#canadian goose#wildlife photography#thinking about the tumblr conversation about the inherent eroticism of rivals in combat#this photo looks so romantic#almost like dancing#compared to the photo I also got yesterday of two geese mating#which just looks like a little kid pulling another's hair for a few seconds#whereas this is an intense fight but looks so pretty...#anyways#gonna ref this for a drawing someday

i decided to BRUSH up (haha) on my digital painting skills today! i painted on top of a photo i took, so it's not completely an original piece, but it was definitely good practice for painting textures!
(original picture vs painted over version)

Today's beast is the beloved city resident, the Rock Dove or Common Pigeon. If you do not enjoy a pigeon, I question your taste, how do you not enjoy these jaunty little fellows and their beautiful colours, they're even iridescent! Quality bird.
