Tumblr Tuesday: Avian Art

Birds. We love 'em. Whether small, skrunkly, or majestic, in full flight or clumsily flapping, it's no secret that birds are big on Tumblr. If you, too, enjoy a good bird, check out the #birblr tag and the #avian august art challenge, and feast your eyes on these beautiful renditions of the sweet swoopers.

Some birds, if you like

[ID: a digital drawing of a bald eagle facing forward, perched on a branch with a fish in its talons. It is on a colorful background reminiscent of pixels. End.]

Bald eagle, Haliaeetus leucocephalus

Once on the brink of extinction with 417 nesting pairs in 1963, they bounced back after significant conservation efforts and a federal regulation of an environmentally harmful pesticide. In 2019 the population was around 316,700 individuals. The United States has elected a guy who wants to gut federal regulations in the name of "efficiency", but federal environmental protections like the ban on DDT are in place for a reason!!!

Their species name leucocephalus means "white head"! Juvenile eagles are brown all over - it takes a few years to start developing their iconic adult plumage.

I love these guys but wanted to be very particular about avoiding a patriotic vibe in their drawing, so I hope you enjoy the technicolor light show background. B-)

(On another note, thank you all for the kind words and support on my last post! I’m always a bit nervous about posting my art online and I’m very new to tumblr but so far the art community has been so sweet! Anyway, I’ll post more plierhead soon haha)
