Fantastic Wallowa and the bonus of the jigsaw, thanks. xx

Fabulous drawing Wallowa. Your osprey looks quintessentially hawkish, with that hooked beak and beady eye. Off now to treat myself to your puzzle!👍😊

Thanks, and enjoy!

Is this your work? Wonderful. It captures the essence of the Osprey very well.

Thank you! Yes. I've been spending the winter/Covid period drawing birds to learn their field marks. Sometimes I use several photos to help me really see them.

That's how John J. Audoban got started...although after a while he went out and shoot.. the birds so they would sit still for him..

Yes it is . Dark history behind many famous people

It was how you proved what you had discovered. That was a long time ago, before rarity or ecology were appreciated or understood. Audubon did start a path toward conservation at the turn of the 18th/19th centuries.
