A rendered illustration of a great blue heron from the side. The head and neck are down and relaxed, and it is stepping forward, balancing on one leg. The wings are a light dusky blue, with dark blue feathers tucked underneath. The head and beak are facing in the direction the bird is walking, with its dark blue crest feathers exposed and flowing behind it. A rendered illustration of an Eurasian Hoopoe from the side, standing on a rocky perch. The bird’s head is upright, with its distinctive orange crest fully fanned out, each feather tipped in black. Its long, slender, slightly curved bill points forward, giving it an alert appearance. The wings display bold black and white patterns, with darker feathers layered along its back. A rendered illustration of a female pilgrim goose standing in profile, its characteristic gray and white plumage visible. The bird’s head is held high, with feather details and soft shading across its body. The feet and beak are a contrasting orange tone. The background is a very light beige watercolor wash, and the ground is rendered slightly in pencil. The words “pilgrim goose” appear on the left side in small lettering.

Common raven (𝘊𝘰𝘳𝘷𝘶𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘹) ✨
#birds #birdart #illustration #sciart
Illustration of a common raven perched on a branch. The bird is rendered in detail and shown in profile, looking slightly toward the viewer, with its legs staggered on the branch. The branch is only lightly sketched in, and a solid, light grey-blue rectangle frames the bird. The bottom of the piece reads “COMMON RAVEN.”

Native communities have historically been forced into flood-prone areas due to colonization, making them more vulnerable to climate disasters, especially as these disasters become more frequent and intense.

Recently, Typhoon Halong struck the west coast of Alaska, devastating Indigenous communities like Kipnuk and Kwigillingok. Homes have been ripped from their foundations, people are stranded or missing, and hardly anyone is talking about it.

Protecting and educating about birds, wildlife, and ecosystems is fundamental to climate justice.

Climate justice is Indigenous liberation.

None of us are free until Earth and her stewards are free.
