Two fabulous murals.. one for Monday Murals today and one for next week as I will be in Sydney then. Mega talented Perth artist Brenton See whose work you have seen here many times created the 'Mural of Hope for the Western Ground Parrot' at the Perth Zoo to highlight their Western Ground Parrot breeding program. The western ground parrot, endemic to Western Australia, is one of the rarest bird species in the world, their numbers dropping rapidly mainly due to introduced predators and bush fires. Brenton's love of birds and wildlife inspired his Endemic Birds of WA Mural Project check out his blog here. You have to respect and admire the passion. Hope you are having a super Easter weekend, happy Monday take care and stay safe..
Beautifully painted murals. How awful it would be to lose these wonderful birds. They remind me so much of the Peach-faced Lovebirds that we see flying around Phoenix these days.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done!
ReplyDelete...these are beauties!
ReplyDeleteVery nice murals. Have fun in Sydney.
ReplyDeleteExceptionally realistic portrayal of the birds.
ReplyDeletereal turtles, fake parrots, your photos are always so bright with joy and colors
ReplyDeleteAmazing and beautifully done. You find some interesting murals, Grace. We have no new ones here. :(
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous bird and I love how the artist has captured well the way the feathers bundle up on the bird's sides and back; that layered look. Let's hope that the dangers the parrot faces are dealt with soon and effectively.
ReplyDeleteWow, they are amazing. Safe trip to Sydney. Take care Diane
ReplyDeleteNo Way!?! Such Beautiful Use Of The Negative Space In That Second Mural. Thanx So Much For Sharing These Little Gems!!
ReplyDeleteCheers
Those are wonderful murals of fine looking birds. Good post. Thank you for your comments on my Pow Wow dancer photos. I believe they are mostly Lakota and Teton Sioux Native people although other tribes are also represented. The Pow Wow, a traditional drum, song, and dance event called Wacipi, is open to anyone who is interested in coming to watch.
ReplyDeleteBoth beautifully done Grace. Enjoy your Sydney trip and see you soon.
ReplyDeletePhenominal work. How sad the creature is endangered.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful works. Ground parrots, here and in New Zealand, are very susceptible to predators. Though, I do wonder how they survived with dingoes.
ReplyDeleteThese are so gorgeous, Grace! I hope they can be helped to survive!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant mural. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful mural!
ReplyDeleteSuch great murals Grace. They look almost real sitting in the wall.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. I of course have never seen such a bird. Have a wonderful trip....Janey
