You've drawn these plovers differently to other recent work, especially second sheet. Grainier pencil maybe? They look really good.
You've got it, I just grabbed a 4B (by mistake actually). I've been alternating between a propelling 0.5mm HB, which I like because there's no sharpening involved, and an ordinary 2B (or several to negate the sharpening problem). I liked the way the sketches were looking with the 4B though so I just carried on and detail went out the window, probably to my advantage. I've just remembered, it was also the last few pages in an older sketchbook which may have made a difference as the paper is slightly different.
