Black Oystercatchers

In French, these birds are called Huîtrier de Bachman.  It sounds more interesting than black oystercatcher.   This is a simple painting of a couple from Montana de Oro State Park at Morro Bay. "Huîtrier de Bachman", watercolor 12''x16''.

Hola! Me encantaron tus dibujos! Llegué a la página porque la dirección salió publicada en la revista de Aves Argentinas, “Naturaleza y Conservación” Te felicito por la calidad de tu trabajo y el nivel de detalle! Claudia

Hola, Claudia. Gracias por las amables palabras. Lo siento...mi Español es terrible. I hope to paint Argentinian birds some day!

Thrilled to see someone painting oystercatches. One of my favorite birds (along with sandhill cranes and all corvids).

Is this available?

Hi C. Principalis,
