Bird drawing - Hooded Merganser
by Wolf Bird » Sun Jun 17, '12, 10:02 pm
New drawing, this time a (male) Hooded Merganser on water. After finishing it and doing a reflection water, I'm think I'm pretty pleased with it. Sure, I can definitely do better, but that'll come with more practice with reflections on water. Which was half the point of this one...practicing reflections. So yeah, there it is. These are goofy looking critters, with their large rounded crests - some ornithologists describe it as clownish. Granted, only male birds have one for display purposes, the female birds are much more drab with smaller crests.

Intriguing looking bird. Glad you mentioned that the females look different than the males as I was wondering about that. I think you've done a spendid job with the water reflection.
