Cam-inspired Creations Fill The Bird Cams Community Art Book
View artistic creations shared by members of the Cornell Lab Bird Cams community.
January 26, 2024
We asked the Cornell Lab Bird Cams community to share their cam-inspired artwork so we could build an online art book based on the birds they love. Artists delivered, sharing their gorgeous works and allowing everyone to share their joy for the birds of the Cornell Lab Bird Cams. There were so many submissions, we couldn’t possibly display all of them here in this single art book page!
Thanks to everyone who shared their creations. We’re so grateful to be part of a talented community with an inspiring love of birds.
