Starting off my challenge to make 1 zine every week until march, it’s some of my favourite baby birds!

I’m doing this challenge to try to kick my habit of overthinking and never starting stuff, though I will admit I’m posting this now on my self-appointed deadline day because I spent the whole week overthinking, gotta start somewhere I guess. Once I forced myself to just sit down and just start drawing it only took me an hour which makes me feel a bit silly

Got bit by a new bird species today!

Red-eyed vireo (Vireo olivaceus)

This guy doesn't even go here! Recent high winds blew him over to Iceland from his typical American homeland. Awww, kinda like me!

(I am a licensed bird ringer for the country of Iceland and all animals are captured and handled according to regulations under the authority of the Natural Science Institute of Iceland)
