Snowy Junco
When I took this picture, this little sparrow was perched on this branch on a warm autumn day, but I imagined some snow and there you go.

Brown Ink, Blue Highlights
I swapped black ink for brown in my Majohn Q1 fountain pen, and I think I love it. I can get more of a complimentary effect when using only two colors if I steer away from black.
Ink, New Pen and Pencil
A chicken, getting ready to turn, and two snoozing ducks. Plus, I bought a goofy pen, the Majohn Q1 with a bent (fude) nib because of its unusual size and the large ink capacity. So far, I really like it. I also picked up this little Lamy mechanical pencil, which is designed for children. Works for me.
More Etched Sketchbook Sketches
I’m still enjoying my new mineral paper sketchbook, mostly choosing ink and pencils this past week.
I used ink with some sprinkles of salt to create this moody background, and then I used Faber-Castell Pitt matt graphite pencils for the Junco and branches. I never get tired of drawing a little bird in a tree.
More ink for this cup plant leaf.
And colored pencil for these Goldfinches with a few ink dried plants.
