Draw a Little Every Day: Day 19

I decided to take a break from this challenge because I caught a bad cold and needed the time to recover. In hindsight, maybe that was a bad thing, because I'm sure I would have created some really interesting images in my tired, befuddled state... ah well... Anyway, after my last post, +Jo Owens on Google+ asked me if I was any good at drawing finches, and since I'd never drawn one before, I thought I see if I was. I decided to draw the head from a zebra finch. Zebra finches are one of my favourite birds, because they're not only pretty, but they make a delightful noise:
 


 So, here's my zebra finch, done in pencil crayon.

  1. I really like this one! It's got kind of a "what're you looking at" expression on its face...

    1. Most birds tend to have that look on their faces. Maybe they are surprised that us slow, dundering humans can actually see them!
