Curlew
This drawing of a curlew features a fill texture of sphagnum moss which in turn features a fill texture of 1000’s of wildlife icons from the peak district design wildlife index of park wildlife.
The Eurasian Curlew often seen around the National Park, Numenius arquata, spends much of the year on coasts or estuaries, but migrates north and inland to breed on moorland or grassland. They generally mate for life and are often seen in pairs. It is almost impossible to tell the difference between male and female Curlews other than by bill length. A females’ bill is slightly longer.
