The Roseate Spoonbill from John J. Audubon's The Birds of North America. Framed in a beautiful black and silver wood moulding with acrylic glazing. Each panel is 22.7 inches wide and 50.7 inches tall. It is designed to have a 2 to 3 inch gap between each frame so the total width can be 72 to 74 inches wide. The moulding is made by Roma Moulding and is Italian Veneer with silver/champagne edge( I call it champagne as it is a warm silver color). The moulding is real wood with real veneer. We custom frame this piece right outside of Atlanta Georgia. Please note that colors on your computer screen may vary slightly from what it actually is. The image is printed on acid free cotton rag paper with archival inks that have a light-fastness of over 140 years so it will not fade for a very, very long time. If you have any questions please let us know.

A little info on this beautiful pink bird. The roseate spoonbill is a gregarious wading bird of the ibis and spoonbill family, Threskiornithidae. It is a resident breeder in South America mostly east of the Andes, and in coastal regions of the Caribbean, Central America, Mexico, the Gulf Coast of the United States, and from central Florida's Atlantic coast to at least as far north as South Carolina. Like the American flamingo, their pink color is diet-derived, consisting of the carotenoid pigment canthaxanthin. This species feeds in shallow fresh or coastal waters by swinging its bill from side to side as it steadily walks through the water, often in groups. The spoon-shaped bill allows it to sift easily through mud. It feeds on crustaceans, aquatic insects, frogs, newts and very small fish ignored by larger waders. See less
