I never used to notice treecreepers, but now I see them pretty much every time I go to the woods. 🪶 #birds #ECK #birdart

I thought this bird was a raven when I first saw it perched on a memorial stone in a park in Tokyo. I've since learned that it's actually a large-billed crow, which are very common in Japan and easily mistaken for ravens. Either way it was fun to paint! 🪶 #birds #corvid #crow #ECK #BlueSkyMonday

It's equally heartbreaking and infuriating to hear about and see these kids intentionally attacking and killing parakeets as well as other birds and animals, all for some sort of sick social media trend. 😭 #parakeets #parakeetlove #birds #ECK

I had to look that up, but yes! It's called a dunnock here in the UK.
