The Galveston Island Nature Tourism Council commissioned this six-foot permanent sculpture of the elegant Eskimo Curlew in 2020. It is the sixth sculpture of The Lost Bird Project, with each memorial permanently installed near the last sighting of the bird. According to the Texas Bird Records Committee of the Texas Ornithological Society, the last fully documented North American sighting of the Eskimo Curlew was in west Galveston in 1962.
