Raptors of the Indian Subcontinent



Big, bad and mean- here's a brand new compilation of all the 73 species of raptors found in the Indian subcontinent! Having such incredible diversity in landscape and habitat, it is of little wonder that the subcontinent hosts such a high diversity of raptors! Right from the 4 feet long Cinereous Vulture to the sparrow-sized Pied Falconet, raptors come in every shape and size, and inhabit all kinds of terrain, be it rainforests, scrubs, deserts, hills, coasts, islands or snow-capped mountains. Being the apex predators in the bird world, raptors truly are the tigers of the skies!

The poster, as well as individual illustrations are available as a wide range of prints and merchandise (and even a wall clock!) on my webstore here
