Day 6 of #BirdArtWeek2026 by @cornellbirds 🪶 This theme as #PhotoNotAvailable by @scottpartridgeart . I am so intrigued by the mystery and lore surrounding this bird, but it is saddening that this beautiful species most likely extinct.

For yesterday's @cornellbirds.bsky.social #BirdArtWeek2026 theme of #PhotoNotAvailable I wanted to recreate my favorite #BaldEagle image I saw last year (not my photo).
Unfortunately for some reason, it isn't available on eBird anymore. Oh well, I hope I got all the little details right. 🪶🦅🖕🧊

St. Kitts Bullfinch, possibly extinct. There are some possible sightings, but nobody has ever been able to take a proper photo of it.
More info about this bird and my painting process on my blog!

Marker art of a prehistoric bird, Titanis Walleri. It has mostly brown feathers flecked with white, red eyes, and a massive, hooked orange and grey beak tripping with meat and blood. The bg is a lighter brown. A pale hand holds up the drawing near a vining plant.
#BirdArtWeek2026 continues with #PhotoNotAvailable! Titanis Walleri, a giant "terror bird" that was alive during the Pliocene and Pleistocene. It was the only bird of its kind (that we know of) to travel north into what is now Turtle Island (North America).

A parrot--sporting a grey head, red bill, golden belly, and dark brown wings--sits on a branch.
Almost at the end of #BirdArtWeek2026! For #PhotoNotAvailable, I chose to draw the Mascarene Parrot.
This bird was endemic to the island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean and was declared extinct in the 19th century due to hunting and deforestation. 😢
