The avocet engages in a complex courtship ritual, usually in shallow waters. The male grooms his feathers while the female leans forward, extending her neck so as to place the head just above the water surface. Then the male wades here and there in front of her, slowly getting closer to her until he gently touches her tail. Finally he extends a wing above the female's back and mating takes place.
 
Average lifespan of the avocet: 25 years
 
Cut, shaped, welded and painted entirely by hand at our workshop in Harare. We take great care to achieve resemblance in morphology, color and attitude.
