Watercolours.
One of the most peculiar and, in my opinion, most beautiful birds of prey.

It was a lot of fun painting this one!

Sekretär, Secretary bird, Sagittarius serpentarius

Is it just me or have these birds become rather popular lately?
I see why though.
Greatly drawn. :)

Yes, they seem to appear quite often here at DA. I've admired them for a long time, too. ;)
Thanks for your comment!

Great painting! These are gorgeous birds. The San Diego Zoo has a couple and I love watching them.
