Day 2 of #birdartweek2025: #MoonlitMigrators. I didn't follow the prompt exactly since great egrets tend to migrate during the daytime, but I just really loved the contrast of the white against the black background. Colored pencil and gouache on a wood panel.

Keeping up in real time with the daily challenges and adding animation means there’s less time to fuss over them. Blame it on the moonlight.
