''TUFTED TITMOUSE''_a little bird in aquarelle full of character

in #art7 years ago (edited)

Tufted Titmouse is a small songbird from North America. These birds feed with insects, caterpillars, seeds, peanuts, berries.
They are like the squirrels, they store food for later use.
I think every bird is full of specific features. They have their own behavior, and their own peculiarities. Like humans? :)
This species is extremely curious, and this has attracted me to make the drawing.

With this beautiful crest full of charisma, the little bird convinced me to draw it. :-)

A wing knocked into the window,
A wandering and curious eye,
My heart flickered.
Welcome!

I am really impressed. I feel my compliment is "weighted" because my job has a few of Audubon's original notebooks and although I did not get to touch them they were laid open before me one time. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evergreen_Museum_%26_Library)

Thanks! But I don't get it! What do you mean?

WhUUt?!?! You gotta look at Audubon! Am I spelling the name correctly?

Beautiful art! You are so talented. Love that little titmouse.

Thank you for your kind words!

Sincerely given!
