  <description>I'd been thinking about drawing some sort of bird anthro for a while, but hadn't gotten around to it. I decided that this was a good excuse, and gave me a subject to try drawing in full color on black paper. I wasn't quite sure if colors other than white would show up as clearly, but I think it turned out decent.

I didn't use any direct references for any of this image, even the wing. I think it turned out all right anyway, but it's far from perfect.

I'm not sure if I am done with this drawing. I'm considering adding more setting/background, but I'm not sure what or how. If you have any ideas, or think I should stop here, I am interested in hearing other people's opinions.</description>
