Hounted = feather drawing

Description

Last year I rode the mountain-bike near a forest, when suddenly a shadow appeared behind me and followed me.

It was a bird of prey (probably a buzzard). I was being chased.

Overall, the animal followed me four times over a period of two weeks.
Later I found out, that it was protecting its nest.

You get goose bumps when such a ‘torpedo body’ is chasing you.

I made the drawing in memory of this impressive bird.
