One-of-a-Kind Bronze Sculpture of a snail kite by Geoffrey C. Smith
13.5"l x 13.5"w x 53"h on a round green marble base
 
Perched high on a sculpted branch dotted with apple snails, this life-size bronze captures the elegance and alert posture of the endangered snail kite. Geoffrey C. Smith sculpted the bird with lifelike precision, from its distinct hooked beak to the soft taper of tail-feathers, bringing attention to this rare raptor and its specialized habitat. The winding branch echoes the slow, upward reach of the Everglades ecosystem, reminding us of the delicate balance these birds rely on.
