A2 Poster (59.4 x 42cm, 23.4" x 16.5" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.
Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a prickly situation! This gilded flicker knows how to make an unconventional home sweet home. Nestled snugly in a saguaro cactus, this male woodpecker is the ultimate trendsetter of the Sonoran Desert. With his vibrant feathers and dashing looks, he's definitely the king of this desert castle. But here's the twist - these woodpeckers aren't just nesting for themselves. They're like real estate agents for other birds! After painstakingly excavating holes in the cactus, they generously offer their cozy abodes to fellow feathered friends. It's like Airbnb for birds! And let's not forget about their unique dining preferences. While most birds turn up their beaks at ants, these flickers have developed quite a taste for them. Talk about being adventurous eaters! Who needs fine dining when you can feast on some crunchy critters? With its stunning colors and quirky habits, this gilded flicker proves that life in the desert is anything but dull. So next time you find yourself strolling through Arizona's Sonoran Desert, keep an eye out for these stylish avian architects and their ant-infused menu choices – they're sure to add some excitement to your wildlife adventure!
