EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 128 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," showcases the Grey Catbird, Dumetella carolinensis, in intricate detail. This illustration, part of the original double elephant folio published between 1831 and 1834, was engraved, printed, and hand-colored by R. Havell (& Son) in London. The Grey Catbird, a member of the Mimidae family, is depicted perched on a bramble, its grey body contrasting beautifully with the vibrant red berries of the flowering plant. This angiosperm, a dicotyledon or dicot, is identified as a blackberry, belonging to the Rosaceae family. The Grey Catbird is an eudicot, a type of angiospermae or flowering plant, and is also known as a Eurosid and Fabidae. The Grey Catbird is native to North and Central America, and is characterized by its distinctive grey coloration, black mask, and long, curved beak. This bird is known for its ability to mimic various sounds, including the meowing of a cat and the ringing of a telephone. The Grey Catbird is often found in thickets and shrubs near water, and feeds on a variety of fruits, including the berries of the blackberry bush, which it is seen enjoying in this illustration. Audubon's meticulous observation and artistic skill are evident in this stunning hand-colored aquatint, which offers a glimpse into the natural world of over two centuries ago. The intricate details of the Grey Catbird and the blackberry bush, as well as the harmonious interplay of colors, make this a truly breathtaking work of art and a testament to the beauty of nature.
