Project 365 ~ #181

#181 of 365 Daily Drawings

 

Inspiration: Discovering that USPS allows people to post adult birds.

 

Result: Registered Male

 

Materials: Pentel 0.3 HB, Platinum Carbon Fountain Pen in a Stillman & Birn Epsilon series sketchbook ( 21.6 cm 27.9 cm / 8 1/2” x 11”)

 

Location: Home

 

Note: ....There were so many things I wanted to draw regarding this because my brain just plain exploded as I looked over the regulations...in particular since the USPS doesn't limit itself to chickens. Just consider this restraining myself...

 

"....Adult chickens, turkeys, guinea fowl, doves, pigeons, pheasants, partridges, quail, ducks, geese, and swans are mailable when properly packaged."

 

…I’m guessing there is a special trick to folding a swan and getting it into the envelope….and it’s probably called Ornicrami ;)
