Information about the Brown Booby:

The Brown Booby are large seabirds native to the tropical islands in the oceans in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean. They are sexually dimorphic which means that the adult females and males differ in appearance. While they are agile in the air, they are very clumsy on land and their take offs and landings can be adventures. They were once the most common bird on many islands in the tropics, but the introductions of rats all but eliminated them from some of them. In places where the rats have been eradicated the birds have returned. The booby catches it food by diving into the ocean and seizing prey. They can dive to 50 feet deep.

The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:
• Paper thickness: 10.3 mil

Artist’s notes:

The Brown Booby was completed on 11.23.2014. I have been working lately with a private client who lives in Antigua in the Caribbean. I’ve completed a few drawings for her, and this illustration is the most recent, as she runs a company that specializes in artwork based on the wildlife native to that island. The drawing is based on a photo by BJ Stacy on Flickr and was used with permission.
