Birds (extinct)

Last few days of this exhibition - I hope to get there, having heard about it on the radio. "Art vs extinction" - 200 or so artists and writers highlighting the birds we have already lost, among them the Black Mamo, Atitlan Grebe, Bonin Grosbeak, and Bishop's O'o'. Margaret Atwood has knit a Great Auk -

Can't remember where I picked up the "newspaper" of the show - my favourite image in it is this feathery print by Kai and Sunny -
