Welcome to the New Bird Nerd Art
A fresh home for ink and watercolor bird art. Here's what you can expect from the new site.
Hi! I'm Meredith, a Canadian artist painting birds one feather at a time.




It’s a joy to be known as Bird Nerd and Missus Blunt. I’m Mere, an ink‑and‑watercolor artist chasing that sweet spot where delicate detail meets lively personality. Every bird carries a story, and those stories matter. My hope is that through art, you’ll not only meet these birds, but come to care fiercely for them and for the wild, vibrant world they depend on.

— A.A. Milne
Every day in 2023, I painted a bird from the Waterloo Region in Ontario: 320+ species, 365 paintings, one unforgettable year.
