The brush I use is a no 0 rigger or script liner. You can find it as part of my set on http://www.timgagnon.com'>http://www.timgagnon.com
I used a 75/25 mix of linseed oil and OMS to thin the paint down for oil, and used water to thin the paint down for acrylic (sketchbook portion).
Use lighter values to make birds appear further away, and darker ones to make them appear closer. Be sure to use colors that harmonize with your painting rather than using black.
