Day 23: Chestnut-bellied Sandgrouse, 9x12"

Day 23, one week to go! Butcherpaper, I adore you in all of your coffee-colored goodness. You always seem to come in massive amounts and in large sizes. You are willing to be cut down into the smallest of pieces to accommodate little guys like this Chestnut-bellied Sandgrouse and I thank you for that.

As soon as I hit publish on this post I am off to shrink wrap the sketches I have done for this project so far. Not to steal butcherpaper's thunder but...shrink wrap machine, I love you.

Day 7: Roseate Spoonbill, 12x9"

Roseate Spoonbill, you are one interesting looking dude. Their deep pink coloring is similar to a flamingo. They use their unusual beak to feed on crustaceans by swinging it from side to side as it steadily walks through the water.

Project IV Day 18: Turkey Vulture (again)

I can't stop with the Turkey Vultures. I think I might have been one in a past life. Is that why I'm such a dirtbag ?

Project IV Day 25: Hoatzin Nestling

Yes, this guy does indeed exist. He is a Hoatzin nestling. One thing you should know about these birds is that they are born with two claws on each wing. They are clumsy in flight and use these claws to climb about in their native swamps of Venezuela and Guyana. Once they reach adulthood, they those their claws. Dinosaur times-style.
