2026 appears to be the year when Green Woodpecker became twitchable in #Northumberland. Birders heading for a lone bird at Mitford this week. Never 'common' but used to be found at many widespread sites...a sad start to the year. #fieldnotes #BirdNotes #BirdSketches #BirdArt
This bird wintered around our garden in 2010. One flying south along the coast path was unexpected. Full note treatment for one at tree barren Boulmer.

Struggling to draw garden birds flitting around the feeders, I realise why I like to get out drawing ducks, geese and swans resting and preening at the water’s edge.

It’s been a real joy watching the young storks grow up on the @whitestorkproject.bsky.social nest cam at Knepp Estate. 💗

Incredible birds and wonderful to see them in the UK!

While visiting the UK, I saw this adorable young Canada goose, so I made a watercolor study in my @steamline journal

An open sketchbook, on the pages is a watercolor studie of a baby Canada goose laying in the grass, its head bent over its back to look at something in the graas besides it. There are some pressed flowers and plants on the pages as well. Around the book are brushes, leafs and part of a palette visible

Blackbird sketches done with Fude pen.

Blackbird ink sketches on paper. The fude pen used is almost out of ink, so the black appears faded and rough.

If I can post this for #birbfest, this is a field sketch of a great crested grebe from one of my Copenhagen sketchbooks. Cool bird. #BirdWhisperer #birdsketches #birbfest2025
