Parrots

Parrots

Happy monday folks! I'm kicking off this week with the first prompt from the August #sketchwithnds challenge which is "parrots".
For this prompt I decided to do a group of endangered parrots (fun fact, a group of parrots is known as a pandemonium!). From left to right; blue hyacinth macaw, orange bellied parrot, cape parrot, red vented corella and yellow eared parrot. 



Each of these gorgeous parrots is endangered. Actually around 50% of parrot species are on the endangered list. Most of them are suffering from habitat loss though demand for rare parrots in the pet trade doesn't help either.
Done in gouache and coloured pencil.
