EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 308 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," showcases the greater yellowlegs, Tringa melanoleuca, in exquisite detail. This illustration, part of the original double elephant folio printed between 1835 and 1838, was engraved, printed, and hand-colored by R. Havell (& Son) in London. The greater yellowlegs, a wading bird native to North America, is depicted in its natural habitat, a swampy environment teeming with lush vegetation. The bird is shown in a moment of relaxation, with one leg extended and the other drawn up for preening. Its distinctive yellow legs, which give the species its name, contrast sharply against the dark, wet ground. Audubon's meticulous attention to anatomy is evident in the illustration, revealing the intricate details of the greater yellowlegs' feathers, beak, and legs. The bird's body is adorned with a mix of brown and white feathers, typical of its species. The greater yellowlegs is a member of the Charadriiformes order, Sauropsida class, and the Scolopacidae family. The greater yellowlegs is a common sight in Florida and other parts of North America, particularly during the daytime. This illustration captures the beauty and grace of the bird in its natural habitat, providing a glimpse into the rich avian diversity of North America during the early 19th century. The hand-colored aquatint technique used by Havell & Son adds depth and vibrancy to the illustration, making it a stunning addition to any collection of natural history art.
