Birds have hollow bones, but not for the reason you might think. It’s not to make them lighter, but to help them breathe better. Their lungs extend into their bones, allowing them to get more oxygen for flying.

Understanding a bit of bird anatomy really challenges the mind to give it a go! My reference was a photo I took years ago and always glossed over it, as it was just way too complicated. I'm glad I kept it, and persevered! Anatomy doesn't have to be complicated, but having some foundations is invaluable! . #birdanatomy #birdjournal #kookaburra #kookaburraillustration #birdpainting #birddrawing #birdillustration #watercolourbirdpainting #birdsketching #howtodrawbirds #learntodraw https://www.instagram.com/p/CKLizjBntKj/?igshid=uujdv7ucp8ot

Young lumpy before the attack. This is a watercolor from 2008. Lumpy was a chicken I owned who survived a raccoon attack by hiding in a bush for 18 hours. All her sisters perished. She had a scar on her beak after that. #chickens #watercolor #artnerd #birdanatomy #dinosaur #drawing #sketch #chicken #tbthanksgiving

Cowbird and Vine. Here's some sibling rivalry for you..."When young cowbirds hatch, they may roll the other eggs out of the nest." How rude 😜. • Art by Catherine Noel.

Anyone ever wondered what a bird tongue looks like?? I hadn't actually thought about it much before but when I was skinning a rook skull for the first time this popped out! I dried it but I've got no idea what to do with it hehe.
