Zebra
Although it’s not native to here, I did spend some time the other day watching Zebra Finches in the pet store when I was picking up some dog food. I figured, hey, maybe it’s not native to here but I did see it in San Diego so I sketched it when I got back.

Big Eyes
After starting my top 100 series, I realized that some of the little brown birds of San Diego can be a little boring to draw… so I decided to try to make them a little more fun by stylizing them. Here is my new take on a Titmouse vs last week’s.
This was significantly more fun to draw. 🙂

Punk Crown
So, I’ve noticed that I’ve just been drawing birds that are interesting on Pinterest… and since this blog is supposed to be more about San Diego birds, I’ve decided to see if I can go through and sketch all the most common birds here. So, although I’ve never seen one, here is a Ruby-crowned Kinglet, which remind me of White-crowned Sparrows in the fact that they are rockin’ the fun hair.

Coffee Cuddles
A couple of cuddly Java Sparrows. I’ve been really into these birds after visiting Hawaii recently.

Little Brown Bird
I’ve noticed that I’ve not been sketching as much lately, so I’ve decided to start posting a sketch a week on Wednesdays. I got watercolors for Christmas, so now I’ll be switching back and forth from the watercolor pencils and straight watercolors.
I figured that I would mark the change with the most common bird in my backyard, a House Finch.
