This realistic depiction of our favourite British birds was inspired by an 18th century painting of plants and animals. A green woodpecker, a wren, a robin, a thrush and a pair of blue tits on their nest of eggs all make their home in a modern tree of life. To complete the scene, butterflies, insects, ladybirds and various woodland berries adorn the tree. The design is painted by watercolour in exquisitely fine detail.
