HelloBird! Fridays | Loggerhead Shrike
Species // Loggerhead Shrike, “Butcher Bird” Family // Lanius ludovicianus
The Loggerhead impales its prey - usually a small bird, mouse, or insect - on a thorn or barbed-wire fence which facilitates tearing it apart then or at a later time; hence its vernacular name “Butcher Bird.” It is a gray, black and white bird, with a slim tail, large head, hooked black beak and...
Holy Hair!
After months of procrastination, aka “it’s just not the right time yet” I hacked off my long locks. Sweet Jesus I can breathe again! *exhales*

HelloBird! Fridays | My Parakeet
Species // Parakeets/Budgerigar Family // Psittacus undulatus
Folks, say hello to Jun/o. I found him on my porch last June (hence the name) He had a busted wing so took him in. Poor little thing was slamming into everything - I’m surprised he didn’t give himself a little Keet concussion. On a side note, I’m convinced Jun/o is a circus bird…and Jun/o is convinced...

Current state of brainstorming...
I had a very productive train ride this afternoon. (can I just say how much I MISS taking the train in to work everyday) Anyhoo, it’s the best place to A. either want to kill someone if you’re pissed or B. if you find yourself in a nice peaceful state of zen (like I happened to have been) it’s an incredible place to just sit and watch people - in a totally non creepy sort of...

My reflection on last night's opening...
Where to begin, where to begin..
It was a pretty good opening night, alot of people, alot of really fucking incredible drawings…but sadly alot of really mediocre-shouldnt-have-been-in-the-show-at-all-kinda work.
