See the Wind

May 21, 2020

Lapwing and Ringed Plovers in a strong wind

What a wind today!  Only a few birds spotted while out walking and those keeping close to the ground.

It’s not easy to depict the wind on paper but here’s a windy bird picture of Lapwing and Ringed plovers in a strong wind by the Master Wildlife Artist, John Busby.

In his book Looking at Birds, John had a whole chapter on birds in the air; this is similar to an illustration in the book.

Unsigned drawing, SOLD 10 x 14 cm (in mount 20 x 25 cm). For sale as part of the #Artistsupportpledge until end June 2020.    See more?    check out the book Looking at Birds?
