The card

From an original painting

The cards are printed from a single ink and watercolour original. An elephant and a rhino hold up the base. Giraffes, zebra and wild dogs climb the branches, a leopard and lion lie at the foot, and a vervet monkey reaches for the star.

See how many you can find: warthog, ground hornbill, chameleon, tortoise, sunbird and more are tucked into the tree.

Why Hadeda & Heron?

One for each home. The hadeda is the ibis that shrieks every South African awake at dawn. The heron is the one standing quietly by every British river. Between them, they cover Christmas at both ends of the world.
