This is a Western Snowy Plover. It is an officially Threatened species that can be found along the Pacific Coast in the Western US. It is a favorite of folks here where I live in Humboldt County, CA, in northern California five hours north of San Francisco.

It’s an adorable little puffball of a bird. They nest on specific parts of beaches that are easier to walk on, so they’re right in the middle of human and animal traffic. Bikes, hikers, animals… They easily become victims of a larger ecosystem that simply doesn’t see them.

This image is a greeting card available on my shop here:

It’s also a limited edition, signed and numbered 11x17” collectors print: https://coreyartusimagery.com/products/western-snowy-plover-11x17-limited-edition-print

All my art is done by hand on my iPad Pro in Procreate, without the assistance of any artificial nonsense. I don’t use it for research or reference or at any point in my process. My work is #Humanmade .

Western Snowy Plovers have become my favorite bird, of all the one’s I’ve done. Not because my artwork is incredibly effective or powerful, but because the bird itself has quite the story: https://optics4birding.com/blogs/conservation/eureka-a-snowy-plover-story

Voice at the Water’s Edge

I spotted this killdeer (Charadrius vociferus) across a Texas lake, standing on one leg on a muddy bank along the opposite shore.

Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story.

Got this done on my livestream yesterday. It’s a Western Snowy Plover, a threatened bird found in the western US among sand and salt flats.

It’s one of the most adorable birds I’ve heard of, and the chicks are literally the smaller than pingpong balls. Interestingly, after sharing the incubation responsibilities to hatch the eggs, the mother will seek a new mate while the father becomes the primary protector for several weeks, teaching the chicks how to hunt bugs and worms to feed themselves. It’s an interesting dynamic. After a month, they’re ready to fly.

But their habitats are succumbing to human encroachment on beaches, pollution, and the ever constant predators ready for a meal about the size of a sparrow.

I drew this because this bird had been suggested to me at the Godwit Bird Festival, where there was a table set up to help awareness of their plight.

ive been curious about #stenography since seeing an old #emacsconf talk on it. A fancy qwerty keyboard can cost alot to be ergonomic (atleast the popular ones ive seen). I found a steno keyboard for 100$ and felt it maybe worth the investment cause its a different technique that promises to be faster and ergonomic (i mainly care about the ergonomic part), while still being relatively affordable. I got it a few days back, this will definitely take awhile to master but im interested in taking the time for it!
right now its just drilling and getting the layout in my head, then comes the actual theory. #plover seems very extensible which was another motivator for this. Not sure where this will lead but im definitely seeing it through!
