Accipitridae Accipitriformes Betula Betulaceae Birch Bird Of Prey Canton Common Crest Eudicot Angiospermae Baza Common Kestrel Dicot Dicotyledon
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor print showcases three magnificent birds of prey native to Asia: the Common Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus), the Black Baza (Aviceda leuphotes), and the Birch Bark Baza (Aviceda leuphotes, subspecies betulina). The Common Kestrel, with its distinctive crest and rufous-brown plumage, is a small falcon commonly found across Europe, Asia, and Africa. The Black Baza, also known as the Black-eared Baza or Black-eared Kite, is a medium-sized bird of prey with black plumage, a distinctive white "bib," and distinctive ear tufts. The Birch Bark Baza, a subspecies of the Black Baza, is named for its preference for nesting in birch trees (Betula spp.). This beautiful artwork is part of the John Reeves Collection of Zoological Drawings from Canton, China, created during the 19th century. Reeves was a British merchant and naturalist who spent many years in China, amassing an impressive collection of natural history specimens and illustrations. The watercolor is executed with great attention to detail, revealing the intricate anatomy and unique features of each bird. The Common Kestrel belongs to the Accipitridae family, which also includes hawks, eagles, and harriers. It is an accipitriform bird, meaning it is a bird of prey with a hooked beak and talons. The Black Baza and Birch Bark Baza are both eudicots, a type of angiosperm, and are part of the order Accipitriformes. The Common Kestrel is a dicotyledon, meaning it has two seed leaves, while the Black Baza and Birch Bark Baza are angiospermae, meaning they produce seeds enclosed in an ovary. This exquisite print is a testament to the natural beauty and diversity of the avian world and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving these magnificent creatures and their habitats.
