I will not reach this level of drawing anytime soon ))
So far, I've only had fun drawing characters from comic Japanese and other Asian comics. The drawing there is quite uncomplicated, the key in the drawing is the eyes.

Of course, then I want to start drawing something normal, not just funny drawings in an Asian way, in particular, I think I can learn to draw ducks and geese well.
After my studies, I kept many notebooks with notes, in each of which several sheets remained unfinished, they lay for many years, and now I began to use this free paper for drawing. Well, I also have a certain amount of colored pencils and even paints in stock.
That is, for this hobby, I don’t even need to buy anything.
In general, I draw everything from what I liked.

I don't hatch unless I have a broody. I hate raising them myself. This girl thinks I'm her mommy, because her egg got deserted, and I hatched her.
I love her, but it's easier if they are raised by a mama hen.

I had a similar story. I kept a small herd of geese, some of which, unfortunately, were killed by a fox. Then I caught this fox (I had no choice, I had to get rid of it, it carried too much threat), after which I had the remaining geese, but there were not many of them. I did some building work so the foxes couldn't get to my bird anymore, in addition we got a big serious dog for protection and after that I went and bought about three dozen little goslings and raised them in another paddock.
(in the corral where the adult geese have a large bath, I was afraid that it would be dangerous for too small geese).
And once I bring with me to this herd of grown new geese, and one old goose looks at me. Before that, I did not know what this could be, but the goose really looked at me with great respect.
I understand that the gander decided that I was somewhere sitting on a nest and hatched all these goslings, and then raised them, and brought them later, as a goose brings offspring.

Looks like excellent snowpack!

And we're very grateful for that! Been in a drought for a few years now.
