Artworks carved from feathers by the scalpel of artist Chris Maynard, who sez of them:
Each feather, though dead and discarded, keeps something of the bird’s essence. Since I work mostly with shed feathers, some of the birds that grew them are likely still living.
The year 2010 recorded in a composite image of 3,888 photographs taken by Erik Solheim from the window of his apartment in Oslo.
Solheim set up his Canon 400D to record one image every 30 minutes: 16,000 photographs whittled down to 3,888 from each of which he extracted a one-pixel wide line, then composited the lot (from January on the left to December on the right) using a computer script.
Full sized image here.
The source imagery was later turned into a rolling gif by ReditorITwitchToo.

A Lyrebird recorded last year at Healesville Sancturary outside Melbourne, perfectly mimicking the sound of a toy laser gun, human voices, a camera shutter and the songs of various other birds.
He’s currently working on an album of his own material.

My Mum saw a black swan on the Tolka [yesterday]. Native to Oz. Birdwatch.ie said it probably escaped captivity?
