Look at this silly guy I saw at the national aviary today! I’ll post more pictures from here when I get home in a week or so.

Kenyan birds super-set

I am not a birder by any stretch, and struggle to photograph birds (so much moving around! so many branches!). But Kenya is absolutely packed with remarkable birds, and there were a couple of nice birders in our group. So, I learned about lots of birds just by having them around.

Along with the showstopper birds like the lilac-breasted roller, the secretarybird, and the goliath heron, there were hundreds of gorgeous birds where I barely caught a photo, and plenty of less flashy species that were just fascinating to watch. So, here are a few of them. I didn't caption the individual photos, but did try to list them all in the tags.

A superb starling! When looking through some birds to draw, I saw this one and was stunned because its feathers look like a piece of metal when hit by the sun. Please, please look up a photo of these! They're so cool!

Bird collage #2

Have no idea why my brain restricted me to only do greyscale but I'm trying to push out of my brain's shitty boundaries while drawing.

My favorite genre of nature photography is birds who look existentially startled

Check out this piebald Superb Starling, from Kimana Kenya, photographed by patosur on inaturalist.

A normal Superb Starling from Naivasha, Kenya, is pictured above as well, photographed by Sumeet Moghe on Wikipedia.
