Description

LIFE WITH BIRDS is a web-comic strip about living with pet birds. The story can be funny, sad or heartwarming. It's a mix between personal experience and wild imagination of my life as an artist and a bird parent. All the characters in my comic are based on the real birds that I have/had. New comic is released once in 2 weeks here. Special bird comics (full page, several pages long) are posted on my Patreon for patrons only.

Pocky is back!

I'm so happy to finally have him back with me in some way. I hope you'd love his comic version as much as his photos. <3

Note about e-mail subcribers:
I have changed my e-mail sender from Feedburner to Mailchimp. I hope this time you'll get an email notice from this post. I have set the delivery setting so that you'll get the email on 8 pm US time every time I have posted something new. EDIT: I've just checked out the email sent to you. I'm sorry I forgot to delete/ replace the template content so it still has the babbling about monkey alliance, lol. I've fixed it. I hope the next email will be OK. Truly sorry if this cause any inconvenience... I'm still new to blogging. >.<

Below is the previous post which I have to re-post here since I'd like to use a smaller file size for the illustration image. (before it was 227kb, now it's just 75kb). I really need to be very careful in uploading images since Blogspot only gives each account 1 GB of image storage only. :(

Btw, I see some of you haven't verified the verification email my blog sent you. You will not be able to subscribe until your email has been verified first. For quick reminder, here are those who haven't done it: megnair2010, yuanxin.koh, themagicbirdie, bella, laurenlauzi, ardorwen, sofie.moshi, afrosamuri257, rulezgirl.

Thank you for everyone who have visited my comic blog, especially those who have subscribed. Your support is very much appreciated. Here's another illustration of my bird comic. As you can see, I'd like to keep things pretty simple, just black outline and minimal screen tone usage. So all birds (including my hair) will be all white, lol. However, I will give each character a unique mark so that you can tell who is who. For example: Pocky has a halo, Pippin has a blush dot on each cheek, etc. Pipi is the only finch here, so I bet you can easily spot which one is her. My 3 quails will also make some appearances in the comics later. But at the beginning, it'll be mostly just Pipi and Pocky since I have already had hundreds of ideas about them jostling in my head. :D

I will try to upload new comics twice a week (US time: Monday & Wednesday afternoon). I'll keep some new comics in stock. In case I'm busy/sick, I'll still be able to upload at least once a week. Please share and tell your friends about my comics if you like it, K? See you again 2 days from now! (^.^)/

    1. This is a 2 panel comic. I'll draw 2 and 4 panel manga style only. It's like a short story for each comic page. :)

  4. So, the bird with the look of disdain and boredom on her face MUST be Papao! :-) The Princess only tolerated you drawing her, I suppose. lol

  5. It's true...sometimes I think the ghost of an especially naughty budgie I had is having fun getting the other budgies in trouble. :)
