This listing is for a limited edition, fine art print of my original painting of a Black-necked Stilt called, “You’d Share Your Last Jelly Bean”
I’ve seen these adorable little short birds at the Monterrey Bay Aquarium a number of times. They have fantastic pink legs that look so delicate, it’s a wonder they can walk on them!
About the bird:
From our friends at Audubon:
“Everything about the Black-necked Stilt seems delicate — from its incredibly thin stilt-legs to its slim wings and its needle-like bill — yet it manages to thrive on the sun-baked flats around shallow lakes, some of them in searing climates.”
Conservation status | Numbers may be increasing as range expands. Quick to take advantage of artificial habitat (sewage ponds, dikes, etc.), so has extended breeding range into new areas recently. The distinctive subspecies in Hawaii is rare and considered endangered. |

Family | Stilts and Avocets |
Habitat | Grassy marshes, mudflats, pools, shallow lakes (fresh and alkaline). Found at all seasons at the margins of shallow water in very open country, especially where there is much marsh growth. For nesting, requires bare open ground near water, with little vegetation. Often found in the same places as American Avocet, but the stilt is more partial to fresh water. |
Bird Art | 4" x 4", 6" x 6" |
