Whilst cycling through Grass Wood in Wharfedale one afternoon this Woodcock flew across the road infront of me. It landed in the wood beside the road, limped off through the undergrowth, dragging one wing and making a call not unlike a Water Rail. The distraction worked as I was unable to find the brood of young it must have had crouched hidden nearby.

Some lovely sketches, love the Woodcock especially.
Thanks Marc
These have a really nice gentle quality...my favourite is the robin I think.
Really interesting to see how an artist works. Have enjoyed looking though your excellent blog. Wish I could draw and paint!
Hi Katka
I keep looking at that Robin drawing and wondering if there is a print in it. Maybe one day!
Hi Jeremy
