Nick, this last trio are quite superb! They remind me of some excellent little pencil vignettes in a cofee table book of British birds I came across some years ago. I've forgot the title but it had works from the likes of Richard Allen and Chris Rose, I think. Anyway, they were top notch like these!

Hi all...
I've just received my contributions to the latest edition of my local bird report back from the editor so thought I'd post some over the next few days...
Still intending to dabble with some colour soon!..

Cheers Bigshent.
Here's another three...the harrier is a Pallid (which I've never seen, as I'm sure is quite evident!)...

Nick - I really like your style - but then I am partial to pencil so black and whites are right up my alley - fantastic work!
 
Thanks guys. Thought I'd try a quick nest-building swallow in anticipation of spring...
I found masking fluid useful for the bits of straw in the nest.
Nick
