The Red Grouse is a medium-sized bird, the male is larger than the female. In addition it has a plump body, a short tail and a lightly hook-tipped bill. It is reddish brown, with it’s legs and feet mostly covered in pale feathers. As a result the Birds breed in the UK in the uplands of the north and west and are resident all year around. Consequently travelling very little in their lives. The population has also been decreasing in recent years. mainly because of the loss of heather moorland and also the spread of diseases. In addition they generally forage on Heather, seeds, berries, and insects.

Avant Garden

has been selling Archipelago Wooden Birds, Fish and associated Sculptures for 16 years. Since Nick first opened the doors of Avant Garden on March 17th 2000. In addition Nick has always been very keen on wildlife in general. And so to see the range at Archipelago, was a must for him to sell them in the shop.
Archipelago has a very strong ethic which has helped to make the brand very strong. The product portfolio has changed over the years to accommodate new exciting Sculptures, but with the quality of each item being so high and the care and attention given by the Sculptors being so incredibly accurate, they go from strength to strength.
