EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 57 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Volume 4 (1873) presents a stunning hand-coloured lithograph of the Wood Sandpiper, Tringa glareola. This nineteenth-century illustration showcases the intricate details of this charismatic wading bird, a member of the Scolopacidae family within the larger group of Sauropsida, or reptile-descended vertebrates. The Wood Sandpiper is easily identified by its long, slender bill, which is distinctively mottled with brown and yellow. The bird is depicted here in its adult plumage, with its greyish-brown upperparts contrasting sharply with its white underparts. A pair of these birds are shown in the image, standing outside in a daytime setting, with one bird bending down to attend to its chick, which can be seen nestled among the grasses. The Wood Sandpiper is a migratory species, spending its summers in Europe and Asia and traveling to Africa for the winter. It is a common sight in wetlands and marshes, where it feeds on a variety of invertebrates, including insects, worms, and crustaceans. This beautiful illustration, produced during the height of the Victorian era, showcases the meticulous attention to detail and artistry of the time. The hand-colouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, bringing the Wood Sandpiper to life and allowing us to appreciate its unique features up close. Whether you are an ornithologist, naturalist, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the natural world, this print is a must-have addition to your collection.
