'Blue Mountain Duck' by Martin Bell.

The blue duck is one of New Zealands most endangered waterfowl. They are known by the Maori people as "whio". They are one of only 3 species of torrent duck that live in the world. They live in fast flowing rivers and streams. Their bills have a black fleshy tip which they use to scrape insects off the rocks under water. Males and females look alike.

This painting is done in oils on canvas board and is 16" x 20" unframed. There are 50 limited edition Giclee prints available.
