Garrulus glandarius (Gaița) - Illustration

Garrulus glandarius, known as Gaița in Romania, is a medium-tall bird from the Crow family with very interesting looks and behavior.

I was delighted to see her for the first time in my neighborhood a while ago. And I just finished it on time for her to eat and hide some nuts for winter. 🌰

I started to draw this bird at Alexia’s watercolor workshop (@alexiaudriste) that took place last summer in Cluj-Napoca. It took me some time to finish it, but I really enjoyed the process.
