#repostyourart day 6 - Bird! I have so many potential options for this prompt since birds are some of my most common subjects. This is a marker/gouache piece from last year, my first time working with alcohol markers. I learned a lot!

Every single one of the astronauts who went to the moon and back on Artemis II was educated at a public school. Thinking of the teachers who poured into Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen tonight. You helped send a kid to the moon! 🌕 💛

The Osprey are back! Friday 10 April 2026 and I filmed six individual birds today - 3 pairs and unbelievably - i filmed each pair mating! Incredible! What a day! I’ll have a full video on my YouTube soon! Beautiful BC 🇨🇦 bio.link/pacificnorth...

Welcome home!

There isn’t, to me, many things more pleasurable than gently watering your plants on a late Spring evening ✨☺️.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay prompt is bird butt... So, here's a painting of a wee wren showing its little backside...sort of. #Birds #FlyDay #OriginalArt #Nature

Absolutely incredible, a Northern Mockingbird has been practicing their calls all night in my backyard. #MerlinBirdID picked up these #birds over 30 min, however only one vocalist was responsible. It was also going through a variety of alarm sounds. Solid 2am birding experience. 🪶🎶

Came home today and saw a monarch on the ground, then quickly realized it was two monarchs making more monarchs. Btw, in pic1 you can see one easy way of telling males from females: males have a black spot on each hind wing, made of thickened specialized scales which produce pheromones. #Bugsky 🐙🌿

Eastern N. America folks, it's just about go time for the start of the ~3 week peak migration (unless you're on the Gulf Coast, in which case it is go time NOW). Expect waves of incredible birds for the next month and a half Turn those overnight lights off to protect them! [stolen from local news]

Drawings from a recent visit to RSPB Saltholme, Teesside, NE England; the highlights, though, were what I didn’t see - Cetti’s Warblers every few yards along the path and a booming Bittern (more like an echoing ‘bomp’, in my opinion.) @teesbirds.bsky.social 🐡🪶 #birdingNorthEast
