I was surprised to observe the behaviour of this family of Australian Magpies, Gymnorhina tibicen. The young one, in the middle with a stick, was playing around with it and the parents , darker in colour, were jumping all around him/her and lying down making strange moves. All three birds seemed to be very interested in the stick. Their behaviour reminded me of dogs playing with each other with a stick... funny Magpies.. http://www.matteogrilli.blogspot.com
Aaaaw, they are so gorgeous and cute Matteo! Their playfulness actually shines through here! Great sketch!
ReplyDeleteI love the subtle tones of black sheen, bravo Matteo, and the behaviour is so intriguing!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful sketch Matteo. I wish we had Magpies here. They seem like such clowns.
