Harlequin Ducks – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Harlequin Ducks:
The Harlequin Duck is a smaller, ocean going species of waterfowl. They are also called painted ducks, totem pole ducks, rock ducks and mountain ducks. It is also called the "Sea Mouse" due to the very odd, mouse-like squeaks it can emit. These birds are native to the northern coastal areas of North America, on both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. The birds feed by what is called "dabbling" - this mean the animal feeds mostly along the surface of the water, or by tipping head-first into the water to graze on aquatic plants and vegetation. While, overall, the Harlequin Duck's populations are stable, those on the Pacific side of North America are declining and are considered endangered. This decline is likely to habitat loss, oil spills and the building of several hydroelectric plants.

Information about the Flightless Cormorant:
The Flightless Cormorant is a member of the Phalacrocoracidae family - which includes some forty species of cormorant and shags. It is a highly unusual bird, as through the process of evolution over many thousands of the years the animal has lost the ability to fly, and instead can only walk and swim. Like other cormorants, it has webbed feet and is an excellent swimmer. This species is the largest extant member of the family being 35–40 inches (89–100 centimeters) in length and weighing 5-6 pounds (2.5–5.0 kilograms. The bird is found on only two of the Galapagos Islands (Fernandina and Isabela) There are only about 1,500 individuals in existence today making it one of the most rare birds on the planet. Very extensive conversation projects are working towards preserving this unique species.

Hawaiian Goose – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Hawaiian Goose:
The Hawaiian Goose or Nene is a species of bird native to the islands of Hawaii (found only on Maui, Kauaʻi and Hawaiʻi.) The name "Nene" comes from the the call of the bird, which is quite soft. It is believed the Nene evolved from the Canadian Goose, which likely came to the islands thousands of years before. While these birds spend most of their time on the ground, they are quite capable fliers. They are herbivores, feeding on leaves, grasses, shrubs, and even flowers. At one time these birds were very common in the Hawaiian Islands, but due to the introduction of non-native species, their numbers have drastically declined and they are now the rarest species of geese in the world. Conservation programs have brought the birds back from the edge of extinction however and there are about 800 in the wild. The Nene was designated the state bird of Hawaii in 1957.
