All studio work at the moment. Bird table watching and drawing in spare moments. The wood pigeons are a pest on the allotment but on the bird table they are providing something with a bit more heft to draw. Along with the jays they are the big beasts of this environment. Male & ‘brownhead’ blackcaps, robins, great, blue & coal tits are the main visitors. Finches and thrushes just don’t seem interested despite the freezing conditions. Maybe they get better feed elsewhere?
