Day 16 of #feathruary2024 is #Marsh or #Swamp and I selected the #AlderFlycatcher

The background pattern is meant to suggest a sonograph of the bird's freeBEER call. Also pictured, an #AmericanCopper#Butterfly

@feathruary is a #birdartchallenge hosted by Missy @projectparlor and Michell @mischievousredfox and features a different bird-related art prompt each day which is open to interpretation. #birdart#feathruary

The American Copper butterfly overwinters in the chrysalis stage, while the current adults will not survive the Iowa winter.

Copper axe heads. Discovered in the Great Lakes region of the United States. From the Old Copper Culture. Old Copper Culture was active throughout the Great Lakes region from 7500 to 1000 BCE. They mined copper (hence the name) and made arrowheads, axes, fishhooks, bowls, religious iconography and much more with the metal. As time went on the metal became less practical for tool production and took on a more ornamental purpose.

The ancient axes pictured above are located in the Milwaukee Public Museum (MPM).

Under the Beautyberry, Aug 2024, ink (brush & fountain pen).

Species from the understory of the oak forests interspersed on the east edge of the North American great plains, here is a Bobcat (Lynx rufus) capturing a Mourning Dove (Zenaida macroura), and plants that provide food for the dove and others like it. Plant species shown, clockwise from the top: American beautyberry (Callicarpa americana), Coralberry (Symphoricarpos orbiculatus), Little barley (Hordeum pusillum), Sideoats grama (Bouteloua curtipendula), and Canada wild rye (Elymus canadense). I hope one day I am able to learn some of the indigenous names for the plants I have begun to know.
