Robert Pollien “Flying Raven” 12 x 18″ Graphite and Chalk on toned board, 2016
Robert Pollien, a painter from Mount Desert Island, has been painting crows for 20 years. Some of his recent studies of the bird are remarkable—and set him alongside Wyeth as one of master renderers of this ubiquitous bird.

Eagle
Bald Eagle, Haliaeetus leucocephalus, pencil and chalk on toned board
Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke just overturned a federal ban on hunting with lead ammunition in national parks and wildlife refuges.
Bald eagles are frequent victims of lead poisoning from ammunition, ingesting bullet fragments as they pick at scavenged carcasses. Other scavengers that have been documented as being affected by lead in this manner include golden eagles, hawks, ravens, turkey vultures, the California condor and grizzly bears.

Yesterday, I visited Acadia Wildlife Foundation and spent some time with an Eagle that had been rehabbed at the AWF. Stunning bird.
