AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Black-tailed Godwit – Limosa limosa

Refined and elegant specimen of the Black-tailed Godwit (Limosa limosa) taxidermied with notable attention to anatomical-morphological details.
The bird is captured in an upright, proud posture, mounted on a synthetic decorative base with a swamp-rock-like effect that provides excellent stability.
Characterized by the long straight bill with an orange-tinted base and a dark tip, typical of this wader species, and by the long, slender legs, perfectly preserved.
Features tawny-orange tones on the neck and chest blending into the white of the belly, with the back and wings finely mottled brown.
Base shaped to resemble naturalistic rock.
A striking piece, ideal for ornithological collections, natural history museums, or as a decorative element for elegant and rustic settings.

Therefore, you are required to check for any country-specific rules applicable to importing an object into your country. The regulations may concern import bans and licenses, as well as rules on customs duties, VAT, excise duties, and clearance costs.
