The greater yellowlegs is one of the most elegant waders on the North American coastline — those vivid yellow legs, long bill, and alert upright posture making it immediately recognisable to any birder who has scanned a mudflat or tidal pool. This hand carved wooden greater yellowlegs, 12"H, captures that watchful quality with careful painted detail.
Greater Yellowlegs — Preening | 12"H · Greater Yellowlegs Pair · Mini Greater Yellowlegs — 5"H
Aviologie's style has elements of distressing and natural variation that are part of what makes each piece unique. Their photos represent the birds accurately, but they are individually hand carved pieces with the soul of variation, not cast resin replicas.
Jesus said "consider the birds" (Luke 12:24), so they did!
Designed on Vancouver Island by Anna & David, each bird is brought to life by the same three families of skilled artisans they have supported, and been supported by, for over 15 years.
Drawing on centuries-old village carving techniques, they blend indigenous folk art with modern design to create timeless art pieces that are simple, refined, and equally at home in settings (rustic, classic or modern), as varied as their customers.
