This is a roadrunner feather. It is from the fuzzy down undercoat. On a walk, Mom and I found where a roadrunner had been killed - I collected some feathers from this day and this is one of them.
You can see in this baby Magpie's eyes that he is just waiting to grow up and peck your eyes out. Aren't babies of all species supposed to look sweet and kind-hearted? This charcoal and pastel sketch is on a piece of 11"x14" drawing paper. Tuesdays = 12 hour workday which in turn = smaller, meaner sketches.
