Back to the #Birds. Well, three chough pictures and one butterfly.

A black bird with a yellow bill atop a roof. The sky is cloudless.

Nineteen birds in flight. I guess the previous place wasn't exciting enough. There is a small shrine in the background.

A single yellow-billed chough, with ridges in the background.

Chinese bushbrown, which is a small brown butterfly with fake eyes on its wings. The butterfly is sitting in a tree with lots of green leaves.

Trying to get a little more active posting here again. Most recently I’ve managed to start drawing semi-regularly again, which is something I’ve rather wanted to get back to. I had some fun doing studies on how to sketch out bird shapes, and do it fairly fast […] [Original post on hachyderm.io]

Digital sketches of various kinds of birds in different poses, titled “Birds vol 1.”

Traditional media art of a bird in flight viewed from the side as their wings stroke down, drawn on a sketch pad with a mechanical pencil that’s on the page. Some special attention has been given to the feathers of the closest wing.

Your usual birds interlude. #Birds

Stylish looking Western little egret by the water's edge.

Alpine accentor hanging around on the ground. Curious small brown bird.

Varied tit in Japan next to Japanese snowbell with round green fruit. The bird has a brown chest and a black and white head.

Another small brown bird in North Macedonia. This one is a whinchat, perched on a plant stalk. Everything is brown.

I wish there was a way to set a post's visibility to "Quiet public" for other instances, but have it be "Public" locally: So it wouldn't show up in the public feeds of other instances, but it would still appear on the public feed of the sender's instance (and be searchable there).

A heavily edited version of KDE's "Mountain" wallpaper by Andy Betts.
With the exception of the white peaks with hints of blue and green, most of the mountain is pure black and rests in-front of a rainbow night sky: The lower half of the sky mainly consists of reds and greens in an almost water-like pattern, while the upper half consists of teal, blue and purple bands. Many stars are visible and outshine their colorful surroundings.

I adore the silly songs and the tasteful golden crowns of the golden-crowned sparrows that start to show up in our neighborhood around this time of year. There's a nifty animated map of their migrations here […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Unlike many other species of birds, the golden-crowned sparrows wear their crowns in winter, not their breeding season. The migrate to our area in the fall and stay over the winter, then fly away to the north to breed in much less regal regalia.

The one in the photo is giving us the side-eye from its left eye. It is standing on a bare stick that is balanced on the rim of a bowl under a flower pot on my deck. The bird's crown is a dull golden color. Not gaudy, but it makes its point.

A panorama crop of a dove climbing a diagonal tree branch. The small dove is white and gray, and its feathers have black tips, making them look like scales. The branch has similar colors as the dove. The background is various shades of green.
