The Chick Fairy is a Fairy that lives in Australia.  Her ancestors came to Australia many years ago.  The Chick Fairy cares about all forms of animal life.  She especially cares for baby birds and butterflies.  

In the first drawing the Chick Fairy is sitting on a branch to care for or keep watch over a nest of chicks, of an undisclosed species of Australian birds, while the mother bird is out seeking food for her babies. 

The second drawing shows the Chick Fairy in Mortal sized form.  She is kneeling  by a small stream and taling with a Cockatoo.  YOU decide what kind of Cockatoo.  There is the Sulphur Crested Cockatoo.  It is white with a bit of yellow on its crest.  There are three other white cockatoos.  There are also black cockatoos with some red, and all black cockatoos or cockatoos with some black etc. etc.  The Major Mitchell Cockatoo is quite colorful.  The way you color this bird will determine its species.   

The third drawing is a Little Corella.  They are a smaller cockatoo.  In fact they are also called the   Bare Eyed Cockatoo or Little Cockatoo or blood stained  cockatoo.  Its scientific name refers to the bright pink on the face or below the beak.  They have a smaller crest, and blue eyes with a grey ring around the eyes.  

There are lots of Fairies in Australia.  Some are related to the Aboriginal People.  Others, like the Chick Fairy, are decendants of European   Fairies.  They emigrated to Australia when humans, or Europeans went there.  By the way, the Fairies call humans "Mortals."  And in case you wondered, yes, Fairies can use their magic or superior technology to change their size.
