The Tree Swallow was completed on 2.28.2010. I considered the different poses for this bird - in flight or perched. I decided on the perched pose because the lovely iridescent blues of the feathers would be better visible. The drawing is based on a photo by David Cree.
The Tree Swallow is a migratory passerine bird that breeds in North America and winters in Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean. It is a medium-sized swallow, growing to about 5 inches long (12.7 cm) These beautiful and active birds - which form large colonies which can number in the hundreds of thousands - feed on flying insects like horseflies, dragonflies, moths, and mayflies. They will not come to birdfeeders as a general rule, but will readily take up residence in man made birdhouses.
