Robin, Ertithacus rubecula

from £50.00

Totemic bird of gardeners and beloved adornment of Christmas cards, the ubiquitous Robin is known to all. So much so that it is regarded as the favourite bird of the British Isles.

Often looked upon as a bird of sweet innocence, it is in fact fiercely territorial and Robins will fight to the death if necessary. When locked in combat, they will be so intent upon their violence one can often approach them very closely, so oblivious they are to danger. Using song to establish their territory, they sing all year round and their light, sun filled, liquid notes trickling forth in winter are especially welcome, draping a crisp morning with a life affirming warmth.

This is a Giclée reproduction of an original graphite pencil drawing, printed on archival grade, professional Hahnemule Photorag 300gsm paper. It is supplied without mount or frame. Framed prints can be arranged at extra cost, please contact the studio to discuss any requirements.
