Bird pencil drawings
Bird drawings in plain pencil: a bullfinch on a rowan branch, a great tit, a peace dove with an olive branch, a hummingbird by a flower, a round sparrow on a fence, a flying swallow, a stork, two swans making a heart, a duck with ducklings and a bird on a birdhouse.
Sketch the outline lightly with an HB pencil first: the body circle, the head and the tail. Add feathers and wings later with short lines, and shade the dark parts with a soft pencil.
