Took ages to finish because i had so much going on but finally i have completed it. Was not happy with the leaves at first but i have began to like the look of them.

I always love the pink and black cockatoos more than the common white one

Wow, beautiful drawing! I love the way you seem to bring out the character of the birds you draw I quite like the wispyness of the leaves.

Cheers, yeah you really can see their personalities through the drawing. Parrots, especally cockatoos show their moods very well.

I am not very good with my over seas birds. a loon is a kind of water bird, yeah? black and white i think. correct me if I'm wrong.

yes its a black and white bird-- sort of like a duck, but this bird (the loon) can swim underwater. it's a pretty cool bird.
