An ink drawing in India ink with crown pen of a kingfisher. The bird is digitally coloured. Added are the paper textured background and the ink blotch that is large lightly depicted behind the bird, it looks a bit like a halo. The background is a cool gradient in shades of blue. The bird sits quietly on a branch with some leaves and seems to be looking at you with one eye. Looking to the left, the kingfisher is a striking sight with its bright blue back and bright orange belly. They can often be found near the water, where they are looking for food. They eat fish but also insects. A hunting kingfisher often sits on a branch near the water as in the drawing. I think kingfishers are fantastic birds. So beautiful in colour and so cute and small. With their big bright eyes, they can look so sweet. Spotting one always makes me happy.
