    Love the introspective blackbird -- beautiful piece. I've been delighted to find this slew of your past work greeting me in my feed reader lately, stunning, stunning stuff. I'd never brush off the years of hard work it takes to cultivate such a talent, but nonetheless, to discover that you've...

    Peter, the pintail piece is so wonderfully serene (and I love the layered complexity of the landscape, so much too see without being too fiddly or detailed -- phenom!). And the gull is beautiful in its simplicity. I've been working on a cardinal myself today, I'd forgotten how frikkin' awful a...

    Lovely collection, Andrew! Can't help but think of the late Dr. Ennion and the scrapbook pages of little drawings he'd assemble, from sketches made on the backs of scrap paper while out doing his rounds.

    Brilliant ... but the shoveler tops the bunch, you've really made clear the shape and form of that enormous bill (such a top notch piece of reference, as well as a beautiful painting in its own right).

    Hear, hear! Nothing encourages me on again when I hit a lull quite like the 'best bit' -- hands down my favourite site on the Net. Keep on posting!

    Beautiful, tranquil scenes. Particularly the one with the heavy fog -- mastery! And congrats on another Birds In Art entry as well.

    Mmmmm! Makes me want to hop on a plane and head for the Pacific. One of these days I'll get there...

    Delicious hoodie, Peter! That bizarre dynamic head shape of his is spot on.

    Love the pen and ink, Andrew -- am I right to say Magnolia, or is my warbler-starved brain just projecting a dendroica-style jizz on your fine little bird? Peter, wonderfully soft lighting in your chickadee piece.

    Wonderful image, Peter! I still have yet to catch up with these -- we always get a few reports during migration, just never the sort of when-and-where that I can take advantage of.

    He makes me cheerful to see him, Chris, and I love the patterns in his feathers. Another one who's good at feet -- I'm terrible at them, I usually do my best to hide them! Peter, always a delight to see the the next daily instalment. You might have answered this already, but how long do you...

    I think you've definitely got something going with the quick blocking in you've done with your long-tailed tits. Now just to give it a go on the real thing! But it's not a bad idea to get familiar with your subjects through photos first, either. You're going to be filling in a lot of blanks...

    3 1/2 weeks 'til the boys are due back (and they're rarely off schedule). This one will have to tide me over until then, Peter!

    Excellent, Chris, he's such a stunning bird (still waiting to see one of these in the flesh).

    Wonderful Chris, love the bold shapes of the avocets (artistic license granted!) I believe Audubon did most of his paintings from pinned specimens (which is why his subjects always had that instantly recognizable Audubon character in their poses). I've heard stories of him shooting a hundred...

    Now you've done it, Peter. If I wasn't completely certain that I was sick of winter, those four are the nail in the coffin. I want my swallows back!

    Love the eagle, had an immy drift overhead on my way in to work this morning (nearly landed myself in the ditch getting a look at 'em through the windshield). You need to open up those bids to us canucks, though -- we'd like a shot at our own original Mathios, too!

    Well, the Eastern Canadas tend to enjoy a lot more political and economic favouritism than the Western Canadas...

    Mmm, love that shrike! Paschalis, your work is always mind blowing. I adore that eagle owl with the cocked head -- what a character!

    Beauty, Peter! I'm a sparrow fanatic (even if I can so rarely tell 'em all apart!), so I'm eagerly awaiting this one.

    I've always wondered how you've gained such a familiarity with Barn Owls, Woody (a bird I'll likely never see in the field, they're so rare in these parts) -- and now I know!

    Beautiful. Makes me think of a hung tapestry, with the leaves and the profiled heron.
