EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph depicts two wading birds, the American Golden Plover (Pluvialis dominica) and the Ruddy Turnstone (Arenaria interpres), in their natural habitat. The American Golden Plover, shown in the foreground with its golden-brown plumage and distinctive black and white markings, is a migratory shorebird that breeds in the Arctic tundra and winters along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the United States. The Ruddy Turnstone, displayed in the background, is a small, stocky shorebird with a reddish-brown back and white underparts. Its unique feeding behavior involves turning over stones and shells with its beak to expose hidden prey. The intricate details of these birds are beautifully rendered in this 19th-century lithograph, which is an engraving after an ornithological illustration by the renowned naturalist John James Audubon. The illustration was originally published in Benjamin Harry Warren's Report on the Birds of Pennsylvania, published in Harrisburg in 1890. The lithograph provides a glimpse into the rich natural history of the United States during this era. In the background, a Northern Goshawk (Accipiter gentilis) is perched on a branch, watching intently for its next prey. This powerful raptor, with its distinctive barred plumage and hooked beak, is a master predator of the northern forests. The contrast between the delicate wading birds and the fierce predator underscores the complex web of life in the natural world.
