EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 14 from William MacGillivray's Watercolour Drawings of British Animals (1831-1841) presents a captivating illustration of the Common Kestrel, Falco tinnunculus, in its natural habitat. This exquisite work of art showcases an immature kestrel, with its distinctively cream, brown, and grey plumage, perched on a weathered tree trunk. The bird's piercing gaze is fixed intently on the ground below, as if in search of its next meal. The Common Kestrel, a member of the Falconiformes order and the Falconidae family, is a versatile and agile bird of prey. Known for its distinctive long, pointed wings and slender body, this bird is well-adapted for its role as a daytime hunter. Its head is turned slightly to one side, revealing the intricate anatomy of its ear openings, which help it locate prey by sound. MacGillivray's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the illustration, with the fine lines and subtle shading used to depict the intricacies of the kestrel's feathers and anatomy. The backdrop of the illustration is a serene woodland scene, with the sun casting dappled light through the trees, adding to the sense of tranquility and natural beauty. This illustration is a testament to the art of ornithology in the 19th century, a time when the study of birds was a popular pastime for the scientifically-minded. MacGillivray's work, along with that of other naturalists and illustrators of the time, contributed significantly to our understanding of the natural world and the diverse range of species that inhabit it.
