Sizes are approximate as all individually handmade and placed on the base.

Please note, these beautiful items are all handmade and hand painted and as such each will be slightly different, the birds can vary a little in shade, painting and stance and the bases will differ as each piece of carefully chosen wood will be naturally individual.  These characteristics are what make each piece unique. The images shown are to give you an idea of what you will receive.

Here are some interesting facts about the Sanderling:

The sanderling is a small, plump, energetic wading bird. It has a short straight black bill and medium length black legs. It is pale grey above and white underneath, and there is a black mark at its shoulder where the folded wing meets the body.  They can be see along most of the coast, they eat small marine worms, crustaceans and molluscs.
