Blue jays are a common North American songbird with brightly colored blue, white, and black plumage, and are intelligent social songsters! They are more than just singers though, they are adept at mimicking the calls of hawks and other birds of prey, in order to provide warnings to their flock, or tricking other species into believing a hawk is nearby. We archivally presented this watercolor “Blue Jay” in a rustic grey profile from Frametastic, Crescent matting, and TruVue 99% UV filtering and anti-reflective “Museum” glazing. by Custom Picture Framer | Sep 28, 2024 | Featured, Sample Gallery | 0 comments
Nuthatches get their common name from their habit of jamming large nuts and acorns into tree bark, then whacking them with their sharp bill to “hatch” out the seed from the inside. This beautiful tonal watercolor of a “White-breasted Nuthatch” is by Philadelphia-based artist and educator Barbara Zanelli. We archivally presented this lovely little bird in a black wood profile from Fotiou’s “Valencia” collection, Crescent matting, and TruVue 99% UV filtering “Conservation” glazing. by Custom Picture Framer | Aug 31, 2024 | Featured, Sample Gallery | 0 comments
