It was Very Exciting to See These Lesser Scaups

Afternoon Nap It seems like every time I go out to Cedar Key I find some new bird to add to my life list. When I went last week I was specifically hoping to see some white pelicans (which aren’t a new species to me), but I only got to see our year long residents, the brown pelicans. But while I was there I did find a group of lesser scaups (Aythya affinis), also known as little blue bills or…

Common Merganser WWT Sussex by Adam Swaine Via Flickr: The Common Merganser, often called the Goosander in Europe, is the largest of the sawbilled ducks. All are specialist fish eaters. Common Mergansers are found throughout the northern hemisphere, and in winter can be seen in large flocks, sometimes of thousands of birds. In Europe they nest as far south as the Swiss lakes, but they are principally a bird of the northern forests, favouring fast-flowing rivers for feeding, roosting on nearby lakes at night.

I finally got around to rereading and finishing "The Unmasked Mallard, Part 2", from @rubbersoles19 So I wanted to make a quick drawing of my favorite scene (very hard to choose), but I decided to base it on Chapter 18: The Chapter With The Glow-Ups, when the Fearsome Five decide to make a last attack against Morgana and her Knights. (it's not exactly like the story, but I liked how it turned out^^')

I really like these Fearsome Five designs. And yes, in the end my favorite character is "Catnip"^^
