These are great. I try birds from time to time and don’t have the courage to post them lol. Thanks for rekindling the memories of a trip to Queensland in ‘16
Been thinking about mirror carp for a few weeks. Tried painting one - not super great, but I don’t hate it. #SundayFishSketch
He forgot to add “…and we’ll parse people into those two categories (savages and peaceable citizens) based on absolutely zero evidence”
A couple eagle pics from LoessBluffsNWR this morning.
Picked a fish that had at least part of January in its name - Lutjanus - for my first #SundayFishSketch of 2026.

Here’s my guess at this week’s #SundayFishSketch prompt.
Texas cichlid #25DaysofFishmads
Hello

2) if you haven’t already, you should check out #SundayFishSketch
Already a day behind, redear sunfish for Day 2 of #25DaysOfFishmas
This week’s #sundayfishsketch prompt was spooky fish or fish w/spooky names. I started down a toadfish rabbit hole b/c they always look menacing. Discovered a new group to me. The plunderfish with their odd little chin barbels. Denizens of the cold waters of the southern oceans around Antarctica.
Happy Opah-versary #sundayfishsketch! The fish that started it all and headed into year 10.
Democrats - don’t give an inch. Make him eat it. He didn’t care before. He doesn’t now, and he won’t after.

Picked the chinook or king salmon for the arctic-themed #sundayfishsketch #inktober2025 crossover.
Watercolor of a four-eyed fish swimming at the surface
Painted this little four-eyed fish for the #foresight prompt and the end of my #sciartseptember.
Chose the #forage prompt for this week’s #sundayfishsketch #sciartseptember crossover. This whiptail catfish forages on periphyton (communities of algae and other organisms that grow on submerged objects
September means baby snakes. Young of year Western Massasauga from the Red Hills of south central Kansas. #fieldherping
Forgot to cross post, so it’s a dah behind. Better late than never
Although colorful enough to be a REEF fish, I painted it for the RIFT prompt of #sciartseptember and this week’s #sundayfishsketch. Haplochromis obliquidens, a cichlid from Lake Victoria and the rift system of East Africa
Water color illustration of a Plains Minnow, a small silvery fish with golden highlights.
Haven’t kept up with #sciartseptember very well. Here’s a plains minnow for the #vanishing prompt from earlier in the week. Once, one of the most common minnows in the sandy drainages of the Kansas and Arkansas rivers, flow regime changes greatly reduced their numbers #sundayfishsketch
#sciartseptember prompt today - islet. Painted Anolis consperus, endemic to Grand Cayman, a small island in the Caribbean.
Thanks!
Big fan of art on found objects. Welcome Miguel!
A pallid sturgeon for this week’s #sundayfishsketch. Found in the Missouri and Mississippi rivers, pallid sturgeons show a preference for swift current and turbid waters. Listed as an endangered species both federally and in Kansas.
