Wholesale Plovers Christmas Ornament

While designing this ornament, I looked for an idea that would express my joys and loves: my family, our coastal areas an all the creatures that live there. As I reflected on fond memories of hot summer days at the beach, it brought to mind images of plovers. Plovers can be identified by their restless darting movements, compact bodies, and short beaks. The more common semi-palmated plover, nests on our shorelines as well as Canada's northern tundra. Piping plovers nest on Nova Scotia's white sand beaches and have become endangered due to increasing development on their very small breeding habitats. Trimmed with a burgundy ribbon, each ornament is ready for hanging on the Christmas tree or in a window. We can add a brief hand inscription to create a wonderful keepsake. It comes packaged in a burgundy gift envelope that is convenient for gift giving or mailing. Begin a collecting tradition that will be treasured for generations. 2.75"H.
