Although a couple prints I liked are no longer available, they've added some really cool ones. As continued evidence of this trend, a recent episode of American Idol (during Hollywood week) boasted Randy wearing a black shirt with white birds and one of the contestants wore a white shirt with black birds.

My personal taste is more of the abstract representations of nature, or the negatives similar in your last example. Oh design trends, how you like to revisit every 30 years or so. lol.
