There has always been a strong connection between birds, birding and art. Even birders who are not artist are probably very familiar with artists such as Sibley, Peterson and of course Audubon, who was famous for his Birds of America project where he drew over 400 of Americas bird life. 

In this episode I will be going over the creation of his signature project as well as how it has inspired me to create my own project with a similar goal, of drawing most of Americas great birdlife.

To follow along with this project, follow me on Instagram and Facebook at Kaylafiskbirds to see each species as they are completed.
