Birds of Guatemala: Very colorful!

The theme for November Draw-a-Bird Day is birds of Guatemala.

As a reminder to all, everyone is invited to submit a bird to Draw-a-Bird Day. The point is not to be a great artist, but to have fun drawing a bird. Go to this link to read about the history of DAB-Day (since 1947!) and why it’s not about artistic talent: The original Draw-a-Bird Day.

You can send me your drawing or painting or photo at any time, and I will include it in the next month’s DAB-Day (published the 9th of every month). Some months have themes, but submitting a “thematic” bird is not required. Send a photo of your bird to wednesday.studio.artists@gmail.com.

Here are this month’s birds:

Tom Eichenberger: Resplendent Quetzel. Acrylic. [The resplendent quetzel is the national bird of Guatemala.]
Lynne Schlimm: Scarlet Macaw. Watercolor.
Kay Elsasser: Yellow-Throated Warbler. Colored pencil.
Tara Hamilton: Slender Sheartail. Watercolor.
Anne Shields: Blue-Throated Motmot. Pastel.
J.H. Kinley: Belted Flycatcher. Watercolor.
Carolyn Rondthaler: Chestnut-Colored Woodpecker. Watercolor.
Martha Larkin: Wine-Throated Hummingbird. Face paint and colored pencil.
Jim Eichenberger: Keel-Billed Toucan. Digital paint.
Larry Meinert: Kittiwacks. Photography. Larry reports that he took this photo of young kittiwack gulls near the North Pole.
Marian Wiseman: Pink-Headed Warbler. Watercolor.

    At this point I am not sure what photos I have sent you previously but perhaps this one is new.
