Scientific illustrator and natural history artist! Constantly obsessing over birds and insects 🐦🐞🐧🐝https://bsky.app/profile/confuzzledpigeon.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/confuzzledpigeon.bsky.social/post/3lg37xc63ac22Sweet little house mouse field sketch-style commission… though I’d never be able to paint this nicely in the field. I ended up adding some fore/hind feet tracks in the top right corner, too.19 Jan 2025 06:44 +0000at://did:plc:6yw647bgusyf3wuacxmjgbwp/app.bsky.feed.post/3lg37xc63ac22https://bsky.app/profile/confuzzledpigeon.bsky.social/post/3ld63onnx4k26An assortment of shags! It was a pleasure to see these three species on their respective islands (Auckland, Campbell and Macquarie) during breeding season, with their striking colours and eye rings!13 Dec 2024 05:50 +0000at://did:plc:6yw647bgusyf3wuacxmjgbwp/app.bsky.feed.post/3ld63onnx4k26https://bsky.app/profile/confuzzledpigeon.bsky.social/post/3lcf7tcc4c22kThis time, a year ago!

This is the Art Toolkit Pocket Palette, which is basically a magnetic business card holder with tiny metal pans. It’s so tiny and flat!01 Dec 2024 04:32 +0000at://did:plc:6yw647bgusyf3wuacxmjgbwp/app.bsky.feed.post/3lc7rpnl2722ehttps://bsky.app/profile/confuzzledpigeon.bsky.social/post/3lc5bn7e4ek2uDesperately trying to convince myself that what I post here Really Doesn’t Matter. My instagram has been too curated for far too long, and I forgot that sketches might be allowed. #thornbill #sketching30 Nov 2024 04:39 +0000at://did:plc:6yw647bgusyf3wuacxmjgbwp/app.bsky.feed.post/3lc5bn7e4ek2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/confuzzledpigeon.bsky.social/post/3lc2jr2ps2s23I hate masking fluid! I wish it wasn’t quite so useful for that one project every 3 years… just in time for the previous bottle I bought to be well and truly dried out.29 Nov 2024 02:26 +0000at://did:plc:6yw647bgusyf3wuacxmjgbwp/app.bsky.feed.post/3lc2jr2ps2s23https://bsky.app/profile/confuzzledpigeon.bsky.social/post/3lbxiadmmlk2mThis is Pelly!
