Back to my Poor Baby series

I did the Blackcap last night. I like playing with the words. The text sometimes describes the birds' calls and the little sayings and words I add are like songs I used to hear us call to each other, especially as teenagers. I also like the way that we have to label and classify things, and some of the labels I've applied are obviously labels that we give each other (I bet there isn't a red-head in the land that wasn't called Duracell at school - I know I was). I also like the contrast between the full-colour live bird and the black and white dead one that I've drawn - I wonder which looks more life-like.
