EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 155 from William MacGillivray's Watercolour Drawings of British Animals (1831-1841) features a captivating image of a European Goldfinch (Carduelis carduelis) in the midst of feeding. The goldfinch, a small, brown bird with a distinctive red face mask and yellow wing patches, is perched on a stem of Centaurea, a common asteraceous (asteraceae) flowering plant. The goldfinch's belly is exposed as it reaches out with its beak to pluck seeds from the flower head. MacGillivray's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate anatomy of the bird, from the fine feathers on its wings and tail to the delicate structures of its face and beak. The European Goldfinch is an eudicot (dicot) bird, belonging to the order Passeriformes and the family Fringillidae. It is a common sight in Europe, Asia, and North America, and is known for its melodic song and distinctive call. The goldfinch's diet consists mainly of seeds, particularly those of compositae (asterales) plants, making them important pollinators for these flowering angiosperms (angiospermae). The goldfinch's anatomy is perfectly adapted to its feeding habits, with a small, agile beak that can easily extract seeds from the flower heads of asterid plants. This beautiful watercolor captures the essence of the European Goldfinch in its natural habitat, feeding on the abundant seeds of a common asteraceous plant. MacGillivray's artistic skill and keen observation make this image a valuable addition to any collection of natural history art.
