EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored steel engraving showcases the vibrant and intricately detailed features of the Tufted Coquette, Lophornis ornatus, also known as the Tufted-necked Hummingbird. The male Tufted Coquette is depicted in all its resplendent glory, with iridescent green and purple feathers adorning its body, a long, curved bill, and distinctive tufts of feathers on its neck. This illustration is taken from Sir William Jardine's Naturalist's Library: Ornithology, specifically the volume dedicated to Hummingbirds, published in Edinburgh by W.H. Lizars in 1834. The meticulous attention to detail in this engraving is a testament to the skill and artistry of the time. The Tufted Coquette was a popular subject for naturalists and collectors during the 19th century due to its unique appearance and striking colors. The Tufted Coquette is a small hummingbird species native to Central and South America. They are found in forests and woodlands, and are known for their agility and ability to hover in mid-air by rapidly flapping their wings. The male Tufted Coquette is particularly distinctive due to its elaborate plumage and distinctive tufts of feathers on its neck, which are used to attract mates. This illustration provides a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of this beautiful and intriguing bird species, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and appreciating the natural world around us.
