Hippolais polyglotta|Melodious warbler (EN) | Felosa-poliglota (PT)

This chubby little bird with hues of yellow and green is relatively common from south to north of Portugal, staying in the territory from April to September. They produce extraordinary vocal combinations, making its singing one of the most varied amongst our avifauna.

One of 100 bird species I illustrated as part of a series where I set out to draw 100 birds from Portugal. On that series I selected native birds and also birds that see Portugal as their home during their migrating journeys across Europe, Africa, and sometimes further away.

This series took me 22  months to complete and I have now selected some of my favourites to offer as A5 prints, a size similar to the original drawing.

Originally hand-drawn on my sketchbook using watercolour and pastel pencils.

Size: A5 (21cm x 14,8cm)
