The Greenshank is a wader, which prefers the sea-shore and can be frequently seen in smaller groups at inland river-shores.



Sources

Nowadays the greenshank is just common in Northeurope, especially in Scandinavia and Russia. In Central Europe he can be sometimes observed on his way to South Europe and Africa, where he used to stay during winter.




Description of the model:

The model shows the Greenshank in breeding feathers in a resting posture, lifting the left leg up.

The body-length of the completed model is about 40 cm.
