Getting back to drawing... (2 Viewers)

Thanks, Mike. On the photos I copied from the LTD and KE foreheads were pretty much that steep. Where I seem to have gone wrong is the heads don't go back quite far enough on my drawings which makes them look 'wrong'. The Med Gull is my own favourite of this bunch.

I questioned the steep forehead on the Long-tailed Duck as I'd never seen one that resembled your drawing. At Barnegate Inlet and Lighthouse I see hundreds this time of year and yesterday I photographed one just like your drawing. Sorry I doubted you👍

No worries, Mike. I had someone question the Mute Swan too..... certain that the neck shouldn't be curved where it met the water......https://x.com/SFbirding/status/1747398806121898172?s=20

EDIT: P.S. Nice pic.
