Caribbean Crèche Wall Print
Quick guide to selecting your wall print:
1. Choose the type - canvas, photo paper or fine art paper. Need more details? See the wall prints guide.
2. Select the size - the options in the drop-down menu refer to the print before a frame is added (including any border). All images are produced in their original uncropped format, so the actual image size may vary depending on your selection.
Canvas prints: the full image covers the entire front face. There is no border and the edges are white. The size selected from the drop-down size menu will be the actual image size.
Photo paper or fine art paper (framed or unframed) - actual image size within the border will be:
| Paper size: width x height | Actual image size: width x height |
| 40cm x 30cm | 28cm x 18.6cm |
| 50cm x 40cm | 40cm x 26.6cm |
| 70cm x 50cm | 54cm x 35.9cm |
| 100cm x 70cm | 80cm x 53.3cm |
3. Pick a frame (or choose not to). Frames are 2cm wide and stand 2.3cm from the wall.
4. Add to basket and you're done!

Caribbean flamingos guard their colony of grey chicks in Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve, Mexico.
It was June and the flamingo chicks had already left their nests and were in crèches. These crèches are always guarded by adult birds, so when the chicks began to approach Claudio, the adults surrounded them and gently headed them back into the colony. Although flamingo population numbers are stable, they are highly sensitive to changes in the environment, such as flooding of their nesting sites, and it is unclear how they will cope with the effects of climate change.
