A lovely small thread @jamesgilbertmr.bsky.social and @robthomasbirds.bsky.social. I listened to this one yesterday, its song carrying so well in the damp air. โ€œWildโ€, โ€œunsettlingโ€, โ€œmovingโ€, perfect.

No luck seeing the eastern black redstart at Filey between 9-11.30am, of course it turned up when I arrived home! But itโ€™s always a win sketching watercolour outside. Filey bay looking south this morning. Cold compared to recently in a fresh southerly breeze.

The teasels planted next to the studio work like a charm!
Lovely to sketch goldfinches recently without the need for optics.

So thrilled to be elected an Associate member of the Society of Wildlife Artists.

I feel very grateful for this recognition by outstanding artists, who above all are inspired by working directly from nature.

SWLA Natural Eye exhibition at Mall Galleries until 25/10.
