Description

Kingfisher with Catch
Limited Edition Giclée Print (150)
This vivid artwork portrays the brilliance of the Common Kingfisher (Alcedo atthis), one of Britain's most dazzling waterside birds. Perched on a bare branch, the Kingfisher is shown from behind, its iridescent turquoise and sapphire wings glowing with colour against the soft background. In its sharp bill it holds a freshly caught fish—an intimate glimpse of this expert hunter in action. The artist has captured the fine feather detail, subtle light reflections, and the bird's proud stance with exquisite realism.
In the wild, Kingfishers inhabit clean rivers, lakes, canals, and wetlands, where they perch silently before diving with lightning speed into the water. Their diet consists mainly of small fish and aquatic insects, and they are fiercely territorial, defending stretches of riverbank as feeding and nesting grounds. Despite their vibrant plumage, Kingfishers are often elusive, their presence betrayed only by a sudden flash of blue or their shrill, piping call as they skim low over the water.
Produced to museum quality standards as a Limited Edition of 150 Giclée prints, this piece is created using archival pigment inks on fine art paper, ensuring exceptional colour vibrancy and lasting value. Each print is hand-signed and numbered by the artist, and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
Perfect for bird enthusiasts, collectors of wildlife art, and lovers of riverside nature, Kingfisher with Catch is both a celebration of the species' jewel-like beauty and a tribute to its remarkable hunting skill.
Poetic Note
A flash of blue, the water stirs,
A hunter strikes where silence whirs.
With silver prize clasped in its beak,
The Kingfisher reigns by river and creek.
