Aussie Bird - Kookaburra

5.5x4.5 watercolor and ink line on paper done recently.  The paper was a sheet I put under other works in progress to prevent discoloration of sheets under other ones.  It has a nice abstraction so I cut out a portion and sketched the kookaburra then colored him. You can imagine seeing tiny trees in the distance.  This bird was featured on a recent WetCanvas forum.
