Sitting Fantail in Porcelian

Porcelain fantail by Paddy and Sheryl Bourke

Dimensions:10 x 6.5cm

The cheeky fantail is one of New Zealand’s best known birds, with its distinctive fanned tail and loud song, and particularly because it often approaches within a metre or two of people. Its wide distribution and habitat preferences, including frequenting well-treed urban parks and gardens, means that most people encounter fantails occasionally. They can be quite confiding, continuing to nest build or visit their nestlings with food when people watch quietly.

Depth of colour may vary slightly due to nature of being hand made.
