Eastern Curlews are the largest shorebirds in the world, and use their fancy long curved beaks to dig up unsuspecting invertebrates from the mud. They overwinter on Australian coasts after migrating from China & Russia where they breed.

They are endangered in large part due to degradation of mudflats & coastal habitats along their migratory routes.

This was the part of a series of paintings for “Vulnerable Animals Week” – highlighting one threatened animals species from each continent.

Dimensions – 20x20cm. An original watercolour & ink illustration.

Media – watercolour (Daniel Smith) & ink on 300gsm hot press 100% cotton paper (Saunders Waterford).

All original paintings come signed with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Prices exclude shipping and framing. Please note that due to variability in screen colour display, there may appear to be some difference in colour between the image & the original painting.
