Osprey at Night

An Osprey glides in profile against a deep black background, wings angled in a shallow M-shape, talons tucked beneath its body. Brushed linework details each banded flight feather, moving from warm rust and gold at the shoulder to pale cream along the belly, while a dark eye-stripe frames its piercing yellow eye. The stark black backdrop throws the bird's silhouette and coloring into dramatic relief, giving a familiar raptor a graphic, nocturnal presence.
