The Sweet-voiced Bird Has Flown: Common Birds in Decline |

A Project of the Finger Lakes Chapter of the Guild of Natural Science Illustrators Click on text or picture for more information on birds, artists, and causes for decline. Each artist created a color painting (shown here and on linked pages) and a monochrome sketch (on linked pages). The painting shows the bird in its native, undisturbed habitat. The sketch shows the same species with the environmental pressures that have caused its decline. |
