White Blue Peacock

This bird is a crossbreed between blue and white peacocks. The result is one spectacular creature. 

wow, I haven’t seen such a dramatic display of genetic mosaicism before.

It’s a Shiny Pokemon.

There are two kinds of people.

this needed to be on this blog because of reasons

EVERYONE APPRECIATE

These fellas, as you may recall from an earlier post of mine, are Stephens Island Wrens, the only known flightless passerine—and unfortunately extinct. Pretty happy with progress on this one too, so far—which is good, because these lovelies inspired me to do this whole thing in the first place. :) More Gouache! The empty space will eventually have type in it.

Ah.  This is the little bird you often hear about that the only one ever seen was the one killed by a lighthouse keeper’s cat, apparently referred to by the footprints in the illustration; however, seems that’s a bit of an exaggeration,  Feral cats certainly didn’t do them any good, though.

The Potoo - Either the most unphotogenic or the most ridiculous looking bird in the world.

unphotogenic? these are my favorite pictures of any bird ever

Holy Jesus it makes a crazy sound.  The whole vid is cool but skip to the end if you want to hear it.

This is like the bird version of me.

It’s like a muppet come to life
