A few sketches from a few days on a seabird island 23 miles offshore from Rockland, Maine, with Audubon’s Seabird Institute. Featuring: Arctic terns, Atlantic puffins, black guillemots, razorbills, seals, bindweed flowers, bird blinds, granite, a lighthouse, scientist Gemma Clucas, John Drury’s lapstrake dory, and scenes from the Vinalhaven–Rockland ferry.
Sketches from a week as a “Puffin Islands” instructor for the National Audubon Society at Hog Island, Maine (with a trip to Eastern Egg Rock).
A story I wrote about jaegers.
Scientists tracked three different species of jaegers from a single arctic breeding site and found out just how far-traveling these mischievous seabirds can be: https://t.co/wS4dgjCed6 @sketchbiologist
