EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 32 from Archibald Thorburn's second edition of British Birds, Volume 1 (1925), features a stunning illustration of two European birds, the Lanius minor, or Lesser Grey Shrike, and the Lanius senator, or Woodchat Shrike, perched on a gnarled branch. These birds, both members of the Laniidae family, are characterized by their distinctive hooked beaks and brown and grey plumage. The Lesser Grey Shrike is depicted with its belly turned towards the viewer, revealing its intricate anatomy and the delicate details of its feathers. The Woodchat Shrike, on the other hand, faces forward, its head tilted slightly to one side, as if observing its surroundings with keen interest. The background of the illustration is adorned with vibrant angiosperms, or flowering plants, adding a splash of color and life to the scene. Archibald Thorburn, a renowned Scottish natural history painter and illustrator, expertly captured the essence of these birds in this beautiful illustration. His attention to detail and ability to bring the natural world to life through his art is evident in the intricate depiction of the birds' anatomy, the textured branch, and the delicate flowers. The Lanius species are butcherbirds, known for their habit of impaling their prey on thorns or branches to secure it for later consumption. These birds are diurnal, or active during the day, and can often be found in open woodlands and farmland. The presence of these birds in the British countryside was an important observation for ornithologists and naturalists of the 19th century, making this illustration a valuable addition to the study and appreciation of British avian life.
