Hey Birdie!

The term kestrel is the common name given to several species of predatory birds from the falcon genus Falco. Kestrels are most easily distinguished by their typical hunting behaviour which is to hover at a height of around 10–20 metres (35–65 ft) over open country and swoop down on ground prey, usually small mammals, lizards or large insects, while other falcons are more adapted for active hunting during flight.

Great Horned Owl drawing in blue With red highlights and a black background

A very colorful graphic image of a curious Tawny Owl on a perch becomes the unique ingredient for a pattern with alternating scaled versions . An original photograph of the owl taken at a local rescue centre has been abstracted through a series of computerized treatments to result in a very individual stylized primary colored illustrative portrait. The owl's puzzled expression asks: "How did I get here?". A generous donation will be made to the Owl Rescue Charity for each sale of this design.

This snowy owl was captured in Pennsylvania's Allegheny Mountains during winter near an old farmhouse. The owl had staked out its hunting territory and I watched it for several days, swooping to catch its prey - always returning to this old fence post.
