A Christmas Island red crab on its home island, south of Indonesia. Each year at around this time, the red crabs travel from the forest to the coast, where they dig a burrow to mate. Their migration has been delayed this year due to a lack of rain.

Christmas Island Blue-tailed skink (Cryptoblepharus egeriae), ink and oil pastel on coloured cardstock.

These skinks were endemic to Christmas Island, Australia, but are now extinct in the wild due to introduced predators. They are gorgeous little creatures, and from what I understand there exists breeding programs to attempt to reestablish their wild populations.

I'll admit I didn't know of their conservation status when I was drawing this one, I just thought they were a good multi-coloured subject to draw on this nice teal paper.

I have another skink coming your way tomorrow, they're very fun to draw all contorted and slithery :D
