    At least a photo stays still.  I certainly couldn't identify this bird or the leaves of the branch from my drawing.  The feet weren't too bad for a first stab, maybe that was because they were mostly behind the branch!  Seeing a limited view makes it easier to get the portions.  And having everything in close up makes it easier to do perspective.

    I have picked up a couple books on journaling, but never knew what to do with them.  Some are for the garden and some are nature oriented.  I'll be interested to see how commenting about what I am drawing helps me to remember what I saw and why I drew it.  Hopefully, the combination will allow me to look back and identify things I saw and to answer questions I might have. Questions especially, are things that photo's can't capture.  Getting that down on paper with pictures will capture more of the observation.
