I'm so used to my subjects moving so fast when I am sketching birds. It was nice to draw from a photo! I feel like I may have made it more wooden feeling, though, because there was no movement to capture. But I was able to see details I wouldn't otherwise have been able to see. The stripes on the bird's breast I probably wouldn't have seen if it were in real life. I did a very quick sketch, in ink, because that's how I usually sketch when I am nature journaling. The hardest part for me was judging my work. I am not very talented or good at drawing.
