✨Reintroduction post!

I'm Harkthorn, and I like to draw mostly fantasy and wildlife art-especially griffons, dragons, birds, and big cats. I also post a lot of bird photos-both of my three parrots, and of the pigeon flock that visits my window, especially Coopuccino (shown here with his mate)

🎨🪶🐡

A realistic drawing of a Blue-throated conure griffon on a branch with leaves in the top right and bottom left of the image. The griffon has one forepaw raised and a pinned eye, looking at the viewer

A green ballpoint pen sketch of a running wingless griffon, based on a grey heron, with a more dog-like back half

A photo of two feral pigeons on a window sill, without the glass in the way. The front pigeon is a pied black male. The back pigeon is a spread/back female with feathered legs and feet

A photo of a Blue-throated conure on a wooden desk perch stand thing. He is facing the viewer, but has put his head down, and turned it sideways a bit so his eye is viewable, and most of his beak. He is looking, with half-closed eye. He wants pets!

Shit, that's hard. I'm so sorry for you both.

A photo of a pied blue spread feral pigeon stood on a metal railing in front of a window, outside. His head is facing the viewer and is tilted cutely as he looks at something below

Same! The photo I posted the other day, of a flock at the park, isn't THAT far away-and yet there were hardly any that weren't just regular blue bar/blue check/blue t-check. There must have been a pigeon keeper around here, or maybe still is since Tort has a ziptie on her leg, and she's quite young

😂 it's very hard to imagine what that sounds like, coming from a dove!

Ohh, no wonder, poor guy lmao. Must be kind of funny to see him sulk though

Dragon doodle page. Insomnia is really bad again lately, so most days it's all I can do to get a bare minimum on the page; there's nothing left for creativity or higher effort

A sketchbook page filled with blue ballpoint pen doodles of various different kinds of dragons in different poses

Ginger, and Twopuccino. He's grown up beautifully-just look at that neck shimmer, and how clean he is

A photo of two feral pigeons stood outside on a window sill. The closest pigeon is a female ash-red check with heavily feathered feet. The further pigeon is a pied blue t-check with a half pink beak

Ginger. She's so SOLID lately, just built like a tank. She's actually been fighting others a bunch lately and seems to be one of the current top pij, unusual for a female

I rarely see her with Pie any more, though he's around a lot, but neither of them are with a new mate either
