Gouldian Finches

Where I live in Australia is home to the beautiful Gouldian Finch. Most Gouldian finches have a black face, around 25% have a red face, but every now and then a rare yellow-faced finch will occur.

It is one of the most colourful birds in the world but, unfortunately, is endangered – with only around 2,500 mature birds existing in the wild. It would be incredibly sad to see such a beautiful, little creature disappear.

I have made my art available to purchase as clipart or as a sticker in my Etsy Store.

I will be creating lots more finch art in the upcoming weeks, so stay tuned!

The Sulphur-crested Cockatoo

We have a lot of birds where I live. Most of them make beautiful sounds…all except one. The Sulphur-crested Cockatoo.

This is what the Sulphur-crested Cockatoo looks like.
