The Bellebyrd site was born out of an Arts Portal from Australia called Print Australia (www.acay.com.au/~severn 1999-2004).
It placed a special emphasis on printmaking and graphic media and is now archived on Internet Archive. Bellebyrd blog was founded in 2005 as part of The Aviary group of blogs.
