Replicas of Kentish Plover eggs

Presentation of 3 fake nests of Kentish Plover. Each brood shows different variations in colour and patterns.

Here are three replicas of Kentish Plover nests? Each egg is modelled and painted by hand.

The creations are now used on stands and during educational workshops promoting the protection of the small shorebird.
