THE BIRDS PROJECT - Great Blue Heron

It's finally October! (+3 days)
I know a lot of people are celebrating inktober, and I decided to jump on the band wagon... -ish.
I decided to illustrate birds. Any kind of birds. Small birds, big birds, fancy ones, ones that fly, that don't fly, etc. 
I don't digitally paint enough, so I decided to try different digital painting methods as well.

I borrowed a field guide from the library and picked a bird.
First stop, the Great Blue Heron!
I remember watching Magic School Bus as a young kid and I saw this episode when Wanda's frog? toad? escaped. I learned that Blue herons EAT frogs and I was terrified that Wanda's frog was gonna get eaten. So I tried to draw a smug version!






Thanks for looking! :)
