Information about the Red-Legged Partridge:

The Red-Legged Partridge – also called the French Partridge to distinguish it from the English Partridge – is a game bird native to Europe, mostly England, France, Spain and Italy. It is usually found on the ground, although it can fly for short bursts at a time. While the species has a large range and is not considered endangered, it does appear to be in decline due to habitat loss, overhunting and hybridization with other similar species.

The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:
• Paper thickness: 10.3 mil
• Paper weight: 5.6 oz/y² (192 g/m²)

Fine art illustration of a Red-Legged Partridge (Alectoris rufa.) The illustration is available in black and white or color.

Artist’s notes:

The Red-Legged Partridge was completed on 5.21.2014. Often, when I’m scanning the photos of my contacts on Flickr, I will come across an image that simply demands to be illustrated. I wasn’t familiar with this specific species of partridge, but the patterns of the feathers are so remarkable I knew I had to add it to the image library. The drawing is based on a photo by Gordon Linton and was used with permission.
