Shades of grey – from almost black to almost white, veering towards blue or violet, and more towards brown or light beige.
The shades are taken from birds’ plumage. Any guesses which one is the hadeda, the heron, the duck and the cockatoo (there are two cockatoos)?
The heron, the hadeda, the duck and the cockatoo. And a cockatoo who said: “Forget this grey stuff, I get me some yellow.” And then he blushed.

Oh, these are great, I love the way the backgrounds are natural with the mosaic effect on just the birds.

Handywork 😄 aka: I had to do it manually (although I’m sure somewhere there is a program that does this).

That’s the best way, I don’t enjoy letting the machines having all the fun anywhere near as much as finding a way to do it myself.

Wonderful effects Elke. The colourful one at the end is called a Cockatiel and are very friendly. My daughter has a couple who chirp away all day with happiness 🙂
