Curlew Christmas card

The hand-drawn curlew design coupled with bold pops of watercolour (in this case, a festive heart decoration) is guaranteed to capture the hearts of your loved ones.

The animal art Christmas greeting card is perfect for those who embrace the unconventional and wish to add a touch of fun to their Christmas greetings this year. Whether you're sending holiday cheer to fellow wildlife enthusiasts or simply looking to surprise someone with a truly exceptional card, the Wild Lines curlew Christmas card might just be the perfect choice.

​​​​​​​With their long legs and fantastic curved beaks, curlews are much-loved wading birds. The UK is home to around a quarter of the world’s curlew population, so is of international importance when it comes to their conservation.

As seems to be the common thread, curlews were once widespread around the UK’s coasts but recently, populations have declined steeply. Between 1995 and 2008, populations in the UK dropped by 42 percent. Curlews are struggling to breed successfully, and this seems to be largely due to the agricultural intensification of land.

The RSPB has been trialling habitat management and predator control measures at six sites to identify the best methods for UK-wide curlew conservation initiatives.

The Christmas card is as eco friendly as possible; it is made using recycled board and packaged with a recycled envelope. We can send the card naked or in a compostable sleeve - the choice is yours.

Printed by a specialist company in the UK, the print quality is brilliant and the card durable. I am always delighted to hear from customers (and card recipients!) who choose to frame their greeting cards and hang them on their walls!
