Birds In The Wilderness V W X Swap/ATCs/Open Media/Due Date: October 19, 2026

Remind me of the instructions for the y, z, ? . The third card is a favorite bird we already made and traded?

You will be doing Y and Z and then pick one of your most favorite birds in the series and do it again.

Two done. I’m so rusty! Haven’t drawn in years.
Van Hasselt’s Sunbird (top), and the Australian Weebill, drawn life size. I’m working with Pigma micron pens and Prismacolor pencils. I’m going to do a bit more to the Weebill, it just needs to rest now.
It’s so nice drawing again, and I love birds, I’m a birder with almost 900 life species. After y, z, how about doing it all over again? Or doing endemic birds.

They look good. What is an endemic bird?

janae, your swaps have arrived. I really like your X bird. Of course, I suppose there is not a whole lot of X birds to pick from? Anywho, thank you for sending a fourth ATC!!

I also got curious.. "An endemic species is a plant or animal that lives in only one specific geographic location in the world and nowhere else."

Actually, I did do a swap like that but it was for all animals not just birds.

Lunna, Your birds are here for V W X and I will process those now. Your ATCs for Y Z and a favorite will process after that swap has posted.
