Wader Bird Weight Comparison Chart, Curlew Avocet Dunlin Scale (Print)

A shorebird poster for the wall: nine waders drawn to their real proportions, from the curlew down to the dunlin.

By these figures a curlew weighs about as much as 15 dunlins.

WHAT IT IS
Field guides draw every wader to fill its own box, so a dunlin and a curlew look much the same size. This chart puts them on one scale, and the bars show how far apart they really are. Every figure comes from AVONET, a peer-reviewed database of bird measurements (Tobias et al. 2022, Ecology Letters), and the full citation is printed along the foot of the chart.
