Low flying crows

Well I have finally caught up and am writing about things I added to my sketchbook today. Bumped into Janet the farmer and she told me off for including her washing on the line in the 'Come on Girls' picture, so I left it out today :"Good job my smalls weren't on there!" she said...

There were a few crows diving over my head...hard to draw as they were flying so fast, but remembered what Alexis said about creating a hybrid of bits of animal and managed to draw one.

Also sketched Janet's favourite 'Jacob sheep' but I have a feeling my drawings look more like cows.....
