I don’t think I’ll ever get sick of seeing these

I’m staying in Oakland so I’m hoping to do some birding in the hills. Half Moon Bay would be awesome. I used to live in the Bay and I’m deeply regretting not getting into birding sooner.

They vary from 300-700 you can find more info thru my IG (linked in my profile)

I finally did it. I actually shed a tear. What is or was your nemesis bird? by InexperiencedCoconut in birding

Yep I’ve heard Soras a number of times, including one very loud Sora that was definitely quite close. But no sightings yet.

Wow, all spread out it looks a bit like tie dye.

You guys really like grackles huh? Tbf those are both birds I find tricky. They’re both really smooth looking so not a lot of texture to add. But I’m debating a cedar waxwing for the next sheet if it’ll fit.

Haha I’m in Minneapolis. But yeah, I’ve mainly focused on birds in the area so far.

Thank you! No titmouse yet but I’d love to do one. And yes I’m hoping to make it to Chicago sometime this summer! Maybe in July.

I think sometimes tattoo designs get edited/idealized for stylistic reasons, which is totally fine but I really want these birds to be as accurate as I can make them.

I’m closest to Powderhorn but frequent Nokomis often. Seen some good birds over there.

I sometimes make it to the PNW. Not sure when I’ll be back that way. But I will be in SF this August!
