Watercolor Birds #13: Common Potoo


This is a bird that I've never seen, and I wish I had. Isn't it the most adorable thing? It has multiple adorable positions, but I wanted one that shows how lizard-like it is. It may not be the best to show it, because the ones that really look like lizards have their eyes closed. But I also wanted one with open eyes. I'm sure this is not the last potoo I draw.

This bird lives in Central and South America, and is related to frogmouths and nightjars. Below is a digital drawing I made of a Papuan Frogmouth, another adorable bird:
