Fantail Ceramic Bauble by Katy Hayward

Fantail Ceramic Bauble

Artist: Katy Hayward

Who said baubles are strictly for Christmas? Not us! When they're this beautiful we think they deserve to be on display all year long!

‘Come fly with me’ features a dancing pair of pīwaiwaka | fantail carrying banners of mānuka, swooping and spreading their beautiful wings and tail feathers, rejoicing in the bountiful supply of food. Believe it or not, pīwaiwaka | fantail birds are one of Aotearoa | New Zealand’s fierce hunters! And those beautiful long tail feathers aren’t just for looks, they also help them to twist and turn very quickly during flight. Their favourites are moths, flies, spiders, wasps, beetles, and the occasional fruit. Yum, yum! We are so lucky in Aotearoa | New Zealand to have such a friendly, joyful little bird hanging around.

Art work by Northland based artist, Katy Hayward. This drawing was inspired by her aroha/love for going on beautiful bushwalks with her little family, and the joy of being followed by these friendly little birds who dart and chase her daughter around.
