After a lovely weekend trip to the Isle of Wight, I'm starting to paint some of the birding highlights.

Today's #birdtober2025 prompt is Ringed Kingfisher? Oooh I thought it was ringed Kingfisher! Like these gorgeous girl we ringed at A Rocha Portugal two years ago as part of their long term monitoring scheme.

It's the start of #birdtober2025 - I fell down a rabbit hole of exploring differences between the four extant species of banded penguins and ended up with this graphic as the end product! At first these birds seem so similar but illustrating them is a great way to notice all the small differences!

The tilt of a Wren’s head, the shadowed curve of a hare in long grass. The weight of an owl's gaze... Moments live again in art. 🎨 Are you an artist inspired by our natural world? The SWLA's Annual Exhibition returns in October. Submit by 22 Aug: www.mallgalleries.org.uk/open-calls/s...

A graphic print of a Barn Owl peering out from behind a tree heavy with white blossom. The owl’s plumage is rendered in warm browns, golds, and blues, with large dark eyes framed by a pale heart-shaped face. In the foreground, white flowers rise from a bed of green ferns. Art by Matt Underwood.

I've recently been trying to branch out from only drawing birds. Tonight, I went for a quick study of the water buffalo and I couldn't resist adding an egret perched on top

Just saw my first swifts of the year, screaming overhead in North Wales. As always I failed to get a picture so here's an old illustration instead #birdingwales

The 3:30am start was a struggle but definitely worth it to help out with my local Black grouse count. I love the Lek it Be slogan to raise awareness on the importance of not disturbing these amazing birds #birdingwales

Sketchbook throwback! This time last year, I was learning to ring a range of garden birds at A Rocha Portugal. Sketchbook pages like this are such a lovely way to remember fieldwork

South stack, ynys mon, never disappoints. This Saturday, the cliffs were full of razorbills and guillemots, watched over by a peregrine. The short eared owl was a lovely bonus. My drawings will have to make up for the lack of photos

I've seen a lot of #wrens recently so it feels like a good time to repost one of my favourite #illustrations

Watching the gulls tap dance away is always a highlight of my walk home. I made a little animation of one I saw this evening.

I'm slowly making the migration over from twitter and Instagram as they become less artist friendly. For my first post this is an old illustration of a white throated dipper, one of my favourite birds.
