And here is our little bird, who immediately said: “It won’t be easy with me.”

So, turkey vulture scaled for #birdwhisperer

My October bird art - the Turkey Vulture. 🪶
#birdwhisperer #birds #art

Digital art study of a turkey vulture sitting on a branch against a muted, blurred background

This month's #BirdWhisperer is the Turkey Vulture! ~2hr study in Clip Studio Paint

A turkey vulture, sitting on a grey-green tree branch. Its feathers are stylised in shades of pale brown, pink and purple, and its head is mottled magenta with a curved grey beak. In the foreground and background, a flush of bright green leaves are out of focus, framing the bottom-left of the image.

Tried using a palette knife for the first time for the October #BirdWhisperer challenge. Have to say I really loved the textures it created and more abstract result.

Here's my drawing of the European Green Woodpecker! I used pencil, watercolor brush pens, color pencils, and gel pen.

#birdwhisperer #birds #sciart #birdart

The European green woodpecker (Picus viridis) is a large, green bird with a bright red crown, paler white/yellowish underparts, and moustachial stripe which has a red centre in males but is all black in females. Our bird is a female, seen in profile, perched a small tree, mid-climb. Tree is on our left, bird is on our right. Background of the photo is full of blurred lush greens of the forest.

This month's #BirdWhisperer is the Green Woodpecker.
My mom is drawing this month again too but isn't finished yet. Will share in replies when hers is done.

A day late, but got a last minute #birdwhisperer submission together. European Green Woodpecker, from a reference by bsky.app/profile/krit...

And here is my mom's drawing. Color pencil and watercolor. #BirdWhisperer

a digital painting of a woodpecker clinging to the vertical trunk of a tree. the bird is mostly green, with a white underbelly and head, a black eyepatch, and a red tuft of feathers on the top. the tree is covered in colorful lichen, and while the overall image is green, heavily saturated polygons of color exist throughout.

This one snuck up on me! European Green Woodpecker for #birdwhisperer in #watercolor.

Gouache painting of a European Green Woodpecker perched on a mossy piece of tree bark. It has mostly green feathers, a creamy white breast and head, but with a black patch around its eye. There's some bright red plumage on its head like a mohawk.

Bit late with my Green Woodpecker for the September #BirdWhisperer submission, but hopefully its still the last Wednesday of the month somewhere in the world 👀

Posting now so I don’t forget. I’ve missed the last TWO months of the #birdwhisperer project 😩 - but I really wanted to get back to it. Plus I just love turkey vultures! Decided to go with a portrait for this one. Maybe someday I’ll learn how to draw with dark tones.

I love a woodpecker, I think they're incredibly cute (especially this little guy and his little bandit mask :3)
