Draw a bird day is almost here again, Saturday 8th April. Please share your drawings, sketches and doodles of birds of any kind. Crocheted, cross stitched or knitted birds are also welcome. No artistic skill required. Looking forward to seeing what everyone draws. You can post earlier than the 8th if you'd like to be it would be nice if some pictures are shared on the actual day.
Here is the story of draw a bird day

I know that this means someone’s birthday is coming up as well.  Will have to give this some proper thought, this year. |

I asked David to draw a sketch of a blue tit visiting a coconut without looking at anything for reference, as I wanting him to just do a quick sketch. I love it even though it's not quite how a blue tit looks.  |

My submission this year is from a friend who drew it on an envelop in the mail. She knows I have 2 budgies that I love. I got it in the mail today.  |

Love all the drawings they are great criswell David did much better than I could have!! That is a great drawing of a blue tit visiting a coconut! I've seen blue tits hundreds of times but still couldn't remember them in enough detail to make a recognisable bird!! |

David said thank you for your nice comment Marianne Marlow That's lovely tweetiepiesmom. I think all letters should have little birds drawn in the corner. I don't send many cards or letters but I shall try to remember to draw birds on the next one. |
