# Bird illustration prompt
This is the prompt sent to Gemini for every bird illustration. Edit it
to change the style — the entire visual feel of the collage flows
through this template.
Two placeholders get replaced per request:
- `{sci_name}` — the binomial Latin name, e.g. `Calypte anna`
- `{com_name}` — the English common name, e.g. `Anna's Hummingbird`
- `{pose}` — either `perched` (pose 1) or `in flight with wings spread` (pose 2)
The default style below is **kachō-e** — Edo-period Japanese
flower-and-bird woodblock prints, rendered in ink and watercolor on
warm paper. Replace the body of the prompt with whatever feels right
for your apartment.

## Prompt
Generate a {pose} {com_name} ({sci_name}) in the style of an Edo-period
Japanese kachō-e woodblock print. Confident sumi-e ink linework with
soft watercolor washes. Earthy, restrained palette — burnt umber,
ochre, indigo, vermillion, muted greens. Plumage details rendered with
short directional brush strokes; eye, beak, and feet drawn with crisp
ink. The bird should be the only subject — NO background, NO branch
unless the pose requires it (a single sparse twig is fine for
perched), NO border or frame, NO text or signature.
Anatomy must be biologically accurate for the named species:
- Exactly two wings. Two legs. One head. One beak. One tail.
- Posture and feather pattern matching {com_name} field-guide
references — color, markings, and body proportions must match the
real bird.
- For perched poses: one wing folded against the body, the other
tucked behind. For flight: both wings extended in a natural flapping
position.
Render at high resolution on a clean transparent background. Output
the illustration with no surrounding scene, no caption, no shadow
beneath the bird.
