Blue-Faced Honeyeater (only pen, no pencil) #sketchtember

It's done! Sketchtember is officially over!

I really enjoyed drawing in pen for a month, but I itch to get back to color and other mediums. I want to finish this sketchbook entirely with this style, but it's not even half-way trough, so it will require a lot of time.

By the way if someone know some kind of black ballpoint-pen that stays true black till the end let me know. I used a paper-mate inkjoy that I really like, but it begins to fade to gray after two drawings.

Inktober starts tomorrow, I still don't know how I will approach this challenge, if I will follow the official prompt (probably not) and what kind of subjects, style or materials to choose. I hope I will figure something out before the end of October 1st.

If you're partecipating in #inktober happy inktober everyone!

What should you give the Blue-faced Honeyeater (Entomyzon cyanotis) if it knocks on your door this Halloween? Besides honey, it also enjoys bananas—so much so that it’s nicknamed the “banana bird” for its reputation of eating ripe bananas from farms. But you likely won’t see this bird in your neighborhood; it inhabits forests and woodlands in parts of northern and eastern Australia. When feeding on nectar, it uses its bristle-covered tongue to quickly and efficiently soak up the sweet stuff!

top 5 birds you've seen and top 5 birds you hope to spot someday

ARRRGGHHH FUCKING BIRDIES I LOVE THEM. i'm including pictures because i want people to see them instead of just having to look them up. also putting it behind a readmore cuz this shit got LONG

BIRDIES I'VE SEEN 🐦

NUMBA ONE: a fucking wedge tailed eagle family that was hunting/preying upon a flock of little corellas. i saw them diving and shit and it was the coolest thing ever. also one of them flew right over me while it was a bit low and it was fucking massive.

NUMBA TWO: rainbow lorikeets <3 they are literally everywhere. they also like to fight other birds.

NUMBA THREE: eastern rosellas! only see them occasionally but they are really cute and cool

NUMBA FOUR: blue-faced honeyeaters! fun fact, the blue part of the face is entirely featherless skin, and when they are young, it's more of an olive green colour which eventually becomes blue when they're older!

NUMBA FIVE: superb fairy wrens! they are very tiny but also very cute! the left is a male and the right is a female!

now...onto birdies I would like to see in the future!!!

BIRDIES I WANNA SEE 🐧

NUMBA ONE: This stupid motherfucking yellow tufted honeyeater. i have HEARD this bird many times but it is an elusive bitch and i've yet to actually see it with my eyeballs. i just want to see the yellow bird please...

NUMBA TWO: yellow tailed black cockatoo! what is it with black and yellow birds and me being unable to see them even though i can fucking hear them??? their calls are very distinct and i love hearing them but they're a bit rarer in my area.

NUMBA THREE: a fucking emu. do i even need to put in an image? i guess i'll do it anyway for consistency. emu's do not live in our area but i kinda wish they did. it would make living in my town a bit more challenging and dangerous but i kinda like danger anyway.

NUMBA FOUR: the scary ass dinosaur bitch also known as a cassowary. i would like to see them but only from a distance.

NUMBA 5: a penguin! i really love penguins a lot. i would elated to see any species of penguin, but i really like emperor penguins because they are big as hell and their sounds are cool.

okay that's it <3 hope you enjoyed the birdies

Had a blue faced honeyeater visit my bird feeder today, but there was nothing there for them.

And looking at the price of freeze dried meal worms has me doing the girl math on a black soldier fly harvesting set up.
