I'm trying to get better at designing a whole sketchbook page. I kinda forgot how fun it was to draw straight onto the paper with ink. The pen is a Stipula fountain pen.

Black-capped chickadee on our feeder. I was sitting pretty close to the feeder, so most other birds were nervous about approaching, but the chickadees were unbothered. (The rusted metal is a slinky, which seems to be effective as a squirrel deterrent)
