April 19th 2010

Displaying Nuthatch; the bird was stationary for a long time, unusual for this species. Took the opportunity to make a fuller sketch of the bird and its surroundings...


Nuthatch, the same bird as above....


Singing Nuthatch, again another study of this cooperative bird...


Lapwing pair in display flight. Glorious to watch in the air...


Common Buzzard, a pair displaing over the forest all day....


Yellowhammer



A few sketches from today as the spring creeps in. The weather was great, warm sun and glorious light and a very relaxing day out wandering around drawing whatever stopped me..
