For the first day of #artadventcalendar, a ring-billed seagull catching a capelin.
This past year, I spent a lot of time staring at seabirds all around the world, discovering how they are more than just gulls but magic.
And quite entertaining when the fish roll in for spawning

When people think of gulls they think of the French fry thieves on the beach - those are herring gulls probably. Not every gull is a thief, some are passionate about capelin like the black-legged kittiwakes. They nest on cliffs & rarely steal fries. But if you have a bucket of fish... 👀

This #watercolor is just an ode to a moment in time - an appreciation for the Egyptian vulture and all they do.
#Vultures are cool. But they aren’t the bird of prey people are calling their favorites or get excited about seeing - unless they mistake them for a different bird as they soar past.

This Cinereous vulture I met is about 5 and the zoo is hoping this is the year he becomes a father. If successful with his partner, their offspring will contribute to reintroduction efforts
He may just look like just another vulture dreaming about dead meat but he is a symbol for hope.

Doodling Maras with oil pastels… found this fun little 6 set of oil pastels from Manley - not sure if they are artist grade but they do add some fun to a Sunday morning sketch session…

Lions don’t purr, but they are still cuddly right?

Spread from the sketchbook. Still enchanted by seagulls flapping by.

Semipalmated plover sketch. Sometimes in frustration something positive can emerge… that’s nature.

A little ode to the vulture family for #InternationalVultureAwarenessday. Vultures tend to be misunderstood - but they are the clean up crew of our world - and they have amazing skills. Some eat bone, some can smell dead meat miles away and unfortunately, many of them are endangered.

What is the creature moving in this? Found on the Atlantic coast of Newfoundland in a tidal pool.

Love when they do this. I believed it’s part of courtship but it’s a cool design
