NORTHERN FLICKER WOVEN BIRD ORNAMENT - HANDMADE BY PERUVIAN AMAZON ARTISAN

This unique fair-trade ornament represents the northern flicker (yellow shafted variation) which is a type of woodpecker that typically feeds on insects more in the ground than in trees. It is found throughout North America and parts of the Caribbean.  It is one of the few woodpeckers which can migrate to seek better conditions during the seasons.

This ornament will look great hanging on your Christmas tree, rear-view mirror or adding a colorful touch to another part of your home.

This ornament was woven with chambira palm fiber by a native Amazon artisan. The sale of these ornaments supports forest conservation and helps meet local needs in traditional communities in Peru.

These woodpeckers were made by a variety of artisans from many of the communities where Amazon Ecology works.  Each ornament comes with a tag listing the name and home of the artisan who made it and the plants used to make it.

Please remember that each craft was handmade so its exact design may vary from the photo shown of this model.  

This bird is a new addition to our collection of North American birds so supplies are limited during this introductory period.
