- That is exciting! I remember how excited I was when I first saw one! Did you happen to get a picture?
- I’ve really been enjoying turning some of my photographs into illustrations! What do you think of this killdeer? #birdnerd #birds #illustration #wildlife #birding #digitalart #florida
- New design alert: Golden-crowned kinglet! 👑✨ Because sometimes your side quest is spending 20 minutes watching a tiny bird the size of a ping pong ball hop through pine branches, and that's valid. For fellow bird nerds: sidequesters.etsy.com #birding #birdwatching #BirdNerd #SideQuest

- Day 4 of #inktober (murky). I wasn’t sure exactly where I wanted to go but I kept thinking of swamps and decided to try get a layered look with various hatching methods. How did it turn out? #inktober2025 #swamp #depth #artchallenge #ink #lineart

- Sometimes the photo needs editing to capture the feeling of the moment and I think that’s fair. It’s also about artistic expression and I don’t need to gatekeep on that.
