“Peep and the Big Wide World”

Watercolor and colored pencil, 21.5x16”

Last summer I photographed what I think was a young Eastern Kingbird at my favorite lake. It was hopping around and chirping with some older family members flying nearby. I walked it over to safety off the path and it pecked at my shoes! I got so close I could see the big wide world reflected in its little eye.

I had been meaning to paint it ever since that encounter. I started with a detailed pencil sketch, went in with watercolor, and then added some feather highlights back in with white colored pencil. I’ll make a video showing photos I took after each session.

As I feel compelled to share any wholesome Sandhill Crane content that I find, I hope you will enjoy this great video from Busch Wildlife Sanctuary. (I added a watermark so hopefully they won’t mind me yoinking this vid to share with y’all here)

The rescue posted that this little family has been spotted several times since the introduction and they seem to be doing great 🥹

Please consider donating to this organization to help fund their efforts in wildlife rehabilitation if you are able!

One of a guineafowl's best skills is just making a big mess! Yup! Just making a huge, horrible, uncleanable mess! Yes and they're round while doing it
