Murmuration of Swallows

£100.00

Handmade oil-based lino print on Awagami silk pure white paper
Dimensions: Triptych is 630 × 297mm / individuals panels are 210 x 297mm (A4)
Edition of 3 prints

A murmuration is a synchronised flight of birds, often involving hundreds of thousands, that occurs during their migration. This aerial dance is a safety measure against predators, creating a confusing, swirling mass that makes it difficult for a bird of prey to target an individual bird. The flocks gather at dusk before roosting together in large groups for the night. 

Please note that these prints are all handmade, so they will differ slightly in appearance to the images shown here.
