 During January and February this year ACAP collaborated with Artists & Biologists Unite for Nature ([ABUN](https://abun4nature.org/)) on its 35th Project entitled “[Painting Petrels in Peril](https://www.acap.aq/latest-news/3909-abun-project-35-painting-petrels-in-peril-gets-going-today?highlight=WyJwZXJpbCIsInBlcmlsJyJd)” to paint or draw the [nine ACAP-listed petrels and shearwaters](https://www.acap.aq/resources/acap-species) ([click here](https://www.acap.aq/latest-news/3980-acap-s-painting-petrels-in-peril-collaboration-with-abun-has-been-a-success)).  The petrel project followed on from ACAP’s first – and successful - collaboration with ABUN last year to produce artworks of the world’s 22 species of albatrosses in support of the inaugural [World Albatross Day](https://www.acap.aq/en/world-albatross-day/introduction-to-world-albatross-day) on 19 June.  The 2021 petrel project resulted in over one hundred artworks produced by 50 ABUN artists, [roughly half](https://www.acap.aq/world-albatross-day/images-and-artwork/76-artists-biologists-unite-for-nature-and-acap-collaborate-over-world-albatross-day-2020) of which may be viewed on this website, along with [posters](https://www.acap.aq/world-albatross-day/images-and-artwork/76-artists-biologists-unite-for-nature-and-acap-collaborate-over-world-albatross-day-2020/3988-petrel-collages-and-posters) suitable for downloading and printing.

 To round off the project, ABUN’s Co-founder, [Kitty Harvill](https://abun4nature.org/founders/) has used the artworks and photos to produce a collage poster and a video, the latter with evocative music by John Nicolosi of [Niko Records Studio](http://www.nikorecordsstudio.com/) accompanying 105 petrel artworks
