Harmony Kingdom Description:
\"The Blue Footed Booby (Sula Nebouxii) caught Peter\'s attention partly for its unusual name but also for its blue feet of course. It\'s name Booby comes from the Spanish \'bobo\' meaning stupid or fool and whilst it is surely not a foolish bird, it does have a rather comical look! The birds are found in the Galapagos Islands to the west coast off the west coast of South America to California and if you should come across one, apparently you can tell whether it\'s a male or female by staring into its eyes - the male has a smaller pupil than the female.
Peter was inspired to create his Blue Footed Booby giving itself a manicure after reading about the bird\'s elaborate courtship consisting of flaunting its blue feet, pointing its head and tail to the sky and whistling! The brighter the males feet, the more attractive he is to a mate.The interior of this beautiful piece shows its food - a tin of anchovies and a whistle for courting his girls.\"
