Project Update: December duckies! Sketches incoming..

Hi everybirdie!

Thank you for the response on my last update, I'm really happy to see the excitement for this project!
I have a few more sketches to show you, as well as a more-or-less definitive list of birds I still want to draw. First up: Some duckies and friends!

Sketches, some more refined than others


I was thinking of making the bufflehead duck with rainbow metal (shown in purple), since their faces look pretty iridescent in pictures. Let me know what you think!

Also, here is a list of the birds I'd still like to draw for this project. You guys have so many cool native species, it's hard to make choices! I wish I could draw them all at once. I'll probably pick up the leftover suggestions for a future project!

5+ pin freebie: Dramatic killdeer + nest collar pin (connected with a little chain!)
