Barn swallow

Little study on my lunch break of a barn swallow, one of the most common and widespread birds in the world.
Their long forked tail and pointed wings also make them easily recognizable.

The species may be the fastest swallow, as it’s been recorded at speeds
close to 75 kilometers per hour (km/h). When not in flight, the Barn
Swallow can be observed perched on fences, wires, TV antennas or dead
branches.

a quick little goldfinch drawing from today’s break. more derwent inktense pencils and a bit of sharpie black ink to finish. What’s he standing on? It looks like a crystal, but it’s meant to be a bit of wood.

Such an enjoyable challenge to do! Reference photo not my own, I forgot to take note of the source and unfortunately I cannot find it online anymore.

Juvenile ring-billed gull

The most numerous gull in North America, snatching french fries from the trash from coast to coast. I love them. This little guy has lots of growing left to do!
