Description

In 2022 I embarked on several of my first ever solo camping trips. One of those trips was to Salen Bay on the Isle of Mull. Looking over the bay and the Sound of Mull I saw many of these lovely creatures diving around and making their lovely noises busy with bird life. Their bright orange colours mean they are pretty much indistinguishable and very cute. I hand colored each of these prints using Sennelier watercolours. Printed on Fabriano Unica 50% cotton paper.
An open edition.
~Did you know? Oyster catchers are classified as Amber in the UK which means they are listed as near threatened on the global IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
