Back to the drawing board - Dunlin

I've started drawing again for the Ayrshire Bird Report, motivated by my PC which has decided to break down, allowing me to get back to basics with just pencil and paper.

I like doing wing details, particularly on waders (shorebirds). Here is a Dunlin (Calidris alpina). Click the image for a larger version.
