How to tell a raven from a crow. An older guide I made with Dr Kaeli Swift. And yes that's an aileron roll, not a barrel roll, but only us nerds know that :)

Red-bellied woodpecker from Feb. 25 2023. Wondering if we’ll get these backyard beauties again this year. ❤️🖤🤍 #onthisday #redbelliedwoodpecker #birdart #birds #woodpecker #wip #watercolour #tradart

Point Pelee is offering its Artist-in-Residence opportunity I’d like to know which five of these drawings you think I should submit for consideration! Help me choose! Check the thread 👇 Thanks 🪶 #birdart #birds #backyardbirds #art #artists #watercolour #ink #drawing #nature #wildlife #tradart

My alarm clock has one setting. Rage MrrrrWOOWWW! 🚨 ‼️⏰ She is cute though. Zoom in on that face! 🐈‍⬛ #cat #catsofbluesky #blackcat (I’m normally up offensively early but have got spectacularly low levels of iron going on lately and feel so very tired and slow)

The account which stole my art, took the time to collage together their post but couldn’t be bother to quickly find the artist to tag justified it by: - just finding it randomly - it being a funny post - by having thousands of msgs in their inbox - by just waking up - by my attitude to them stealing

Sorry … incoming complaint. I’ve struggled to get traction and followers and eyes on my art. This IG account has more than 20K followers including me because I love these birds and they stole my Timberdoodle for self-promotion. Wtf man #art #birds #stolenart #creditartists #thatsmypeent

A patron returning is such a wonderful thing In 2024 I drew the Carolina Wrens for the birthday of a patron’s little granddaughter, who is bestowed with the name Wrenley. For 2025 a House Wren was the requested bird. And little fairy friends in each 🧚 #art #birds #wren #fairy #tradart #nature

1/4 This is important. Like really important. It’s bigger than “ick I don’t like rats and we have a rat problem” Canada’s approach to pesticides is unregulated and grossly inadequate. Petition e-5320 champions that. Please sign and share. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

I said what I said. They are awesome though! 🦅 . . . #baldeagle #eagle #raptor #bird #birds #birdofprey #art #birdart #animalart #wildlifeart #birddrawing #natureart #artist #illustration #painting #watercolor #drawing #sketch #ink #nature #wildlife #birdwatching #birdnerd #timelapse

A morning joy moment brought to you by my 5 year old doggo, this is Cookie aka LaBelle aka Monster aka Cuckoo. Snow makes her so happy 🐕 And of course have to respect her privacy when the 💩 circling starts 🤣 #dogs #dogsofbluesky #happy #joy

More of THIS! #Kitchener #Waterloo

Oh my gosh A bonus BIRB. Of the UK variety! Control yourselves because they’re called Blue Tits…oh stop😏 And they are this adorbs 🩵 It’s my littlest watercolour to date at a whopping 2.5 by 3 inches. #ukbirds #bluetit #birdart #birds #art #miniature #tradart #miniaturepainting #watercolor #joy

This isn't twitter so you don't need to do the "gotcha" thing for the algorithm, just post about the actions you are taking in your community or to resist. Be the person you want to see in your democracy.

It’s all such a mess right now It’s so ugly right now If you don’t post about it all you evidently don’t care Hey, so the feeling of paralyzing irrelevancy is real Joyful art made with a kind gentle heart that’s full of wonder has become defiant Cool 🪶 #birds #art #wren #tradart #love #wip

Superb Owl Sunday you say… 🦉 #superbowlsunday #owl #birds #birdart #artists #tradart

My youngest turns 14 today. When I drew my year of birds he requested a common freckle for his birthday. And so here is Elliott’s grackle. It remains one of my faves from 2023. #attitude #birds #birdart #tradart #watercolor #wip #art #artist

Not the bird to fuck with. #madeinCanada

Here’s how my sassy herring gull came together. #bird #art #timelapse #birdart #birds #tradart #gull #herringgull #artistatwork

I’m at a loss for words. So here’s my herring gull from Jan 31 2023 who looks like she’s ready to square off with it all. #birdart #birds #canada #gull #herringgull #tradewar #goodneighbours #loss #grief #trauma #art

My northern parula. The first warbler I got to know. Tied forever to Nova Scotia for me as that’s where I first saw them. Posting in memory of a lovely friend and neighbour to our little life in Dartmouth NS. I didn’t know I would be saying farewell to you today. My heart is very sad.
