This etching is going out to a Shorebird Conference as a silent auction item. I gave it the title Strolling because the Black-bellied Plover was strolling back and forth in a runnel on the beach. I sat down and sketched this bird. It was one of those magical moments.
The etching is done on a zinc plate. All most of the color is ink onto the plate. I touch the eye with just a little black.
I wish I was going to the conference. But since I can't it is nice to know my strolling plover is.
Have fun Abby and I expect a full report.
