EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts an adult Least Tern, Sternula antillarum, perched on a cliff edge, with a young tern in fall plumage resting nearby. The intricately detailed illustration is a testament to the artistic skill of the 19th century ornithological community. The Least Tern is a small seabird, with a distinctive black cap and white underparts, and a forked tail. They are found in the Americas, from the Arctic Circle to the Caribbean, and are known for their agile flight and acrobatic courtship displays. The adult tern in this illustration is shown with its sharp, hooked beak open, likely in the process of calling or feeding. The young tern, still in its fall plumage, displays a mix of brown and white feathers, indicating that it is in the process of growing into its adult plumage. The background of the illustration features a rocky cliffside, with the open ocean visible in the distance. This setting is typical of the Least Tern's breeding habitats, which are often found on sandy beaches or rocky shores. This illustration is a reproduction of an original ornithological plate from Benjamin Harry Warren's Report on the Birds of Pennsylvania, published in Harrisburg in 1890. The illustration was created by the renowned ornithological artist John James Audubon, who is famous for his detailed and accurate depictions of North American birds. The use of the chromolithograph process, which involves printing multiple colors from separate plates, adds to the vibrancy and depth of the image. The Least Tern is an important species in the avian community, and this illustration serves as a beautiful reminder of the natural beauty and diversity of the bird life that can be found in the United States and beyond.
