Going out on a limb for spoonbills

I keep telling people, I am a printmaker not a painter. However every once in a while I try. Here is a painting I am trying to finish. I thought I would go out on a limb and ask if anyone has some suggestion?

What does it need?

My art works for birds.

We are losing our wild birds. It is very subtle. There were six areas with Wood Thrushes singing on my Breeding Bird Surveys twenty year ago. Today, there are none. In 1980 there was a colony of Least Terns, Black Skimmers, Willets and Wilson’s Plovers on the south end of Jekyll Island. Today there is one pair of Wilson’s Plover nesting.

I have several conservation projects going on right now. Help me help the birds. Buy an etching, monotype or drawing.
The monies for your purchase of my art will enable the continuation of my work with the conservation of birds.
