Dougalis Wildlifeart-Life studies-Portraits

  I spend the whole morning at a private park close to Munich hoping to get few coloured studies completed. The rainy weather changed my plans, and managed to get several B & w sketches sitting under my umbrella...

 I`m just back from Northern Greece, where I spend a week watching, studying  and sketching birds. I had a great time as always, I can`t complain, the weather was fine , the expected bird species to see were there, and finally I`ve been rewarded with  a series of studies done on location . I saw for the first time in my life Collared pratincoles and enjoyed the song of the Barred warbler in particular, watching them at close quarters... Most of birds gave me great views and made me considering to plan an other trip at the same time maybe next year...
