Printed on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308gsm.

The Dunlin is the classic small sandpiper of the winter shore, its down-curved bill and neat, rounded form the shape most people picture when they think of a wader on the flats. In breeding dress it carries a bold black belly patch against a rusty back, a surprising splash of pattern that makes the print more interesting than its quiet size suggests.

The bird

The Dunlin gathers in vast, wheeling flocks on estuaries and mudflats, one of the most numerous shorebirds of the northern coasts. It feeds with a steady, sewing-machine probing of the mud. In spring the rufous back and the distinctive black belly give it real character; in winter it turns a soft, plain grey. That seasonal black belly patch makes the breeding plate a small, striking piece for a coastal wall.

Paper and finish

Unframed prints come on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308gsm, a heavyweight cotton rag with a soft matte surface and true archival life. The framed option is set in a classic moulding, glazed and ready to hang, in black, white or natural.

Sizes

Three sizes: 8x10, 16x20 and 24x30 inches, or a high-resolution digital download at $9. Prints from $39. Framed from $99.
