Plate 25 from 'Neilgherry Birds and Miscellaneous' (1858) by Margaret Bushby Lascelles Cockburn: A Magnificent Display of Avian Plumage This image, Plate 25 from Margaret Bushby Lascelles Cockburn's 'Neilgherry Birds and Miscellaneous' (1858), showcases an exquisite collection of bird feathers, offering a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of the avian world during the 19th century. The plate features a diverse array of feathers from various species, including chestnut-hued birds, Asian birds, and arthropod-eating birds of prey such as the Accipitridae family. Among the feathers, one can identify the vibrant plumage of the Cardinalis (Cardinal), with its distinctive red and black coloration, and the striking blue hues of the Anthophila (Bluebird). The plate also includes feathers from the Angiospermae-feeding Angithene (Bee-eater), which plays a crucial role in pollinating angiosperms. The intricately detailed illustration highlights the beauty and complexity of the avian world, with feathers from the Accipitriformes (Hawk), Charadriiformes (Plover), and Accipitridae (Falcon) families, showcasing a wide range of textures and colors. This plate is a testament to the vast array of bird species that populated the natural world during the 19th century, providing a window into the past and reminding us of the importance of preserving biodiversity for future generations. Margaret Bushby Lascelles Cockburn, a talented naturalist and illustrator, meticulously documented these feathers, capturing their essence and preserving them for posterity. Her work continues to inspire and educate us about the natural world and the intricate relationships between various species and their environments.
