The Spinifex Pigeon, Geophaps plumifera, is a distinctive ground-dwelling pigeon found across arid and semi-arid regions of Australia. It is especially associated with rocky country, spinifex grasslands and rugged ranges, where its colouring provides excellent camouflage among the stones and dry grasses. Easily recognised by its tall, delicate crest, chestnut plumage and striking facial markings, the Spinifex Pigeon is usually seen walking or running on the ground rather than flying for long distances It feeds mainly on seeds and is often found near water or sheltered rocky areas. Beautifully adapted to the inland, it is one of the most characteristic birds of Australia’s desert country.
The Original Painting is professionally scanned and colour-corrected and is printed using fade-proof archival inks. The final result is very close to the original for a fraction of the cost!
The print will be rolled in a sturdy tube.
