Kia ora! I'm a #nature nut, addict of #iNaturalist NZ — Mātaki Taiao, and an #ecologist at #LincolnUniversity in #Aotearoa-#NewZealand.

I spend an inordinate amount of my time counting nature to watch what's changing (see https://wildcounts.org/).

Jon Sullivan@joncounts@mastodon.nz (2026-10-20 18:18:32) Here's my drawing for Day 20 of the Ink-Birdtober challenge. Today's prompts are the Philippine Cockatoo, a gregarious mid-sized cockatoo from the Philippines, and "lounge".

I was just going to draw a group of Phillipine Cockatoos having fun on a couch in a lounge. I then read that the species is critically endangered because so many birds have been illegally poached from the wild for the pet trade. Grrr. So I drew this.

They're still having fun on a couch.
