Stillness Before Strike

for the Tasmanian Azure Kingfisher

Endangered

By Jairus, age 11

When I first visited Tasmania for a vacation, I was very amazed by its beautiful landscapes, food and wildlife. This artwork brings back the joy I felt during that vacation. I also love birds, and I enjoyed photographing them with my friends. Drawing this bird allowed me to treasure those special memories and express my love for nature in a drawing, while remembering the enjoyment of Tasmania.
