EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured steel engraving depicts the African Cuckoo-hawk, Aviceda cuculoides, also known as the African cuckoo falcon. The image is based on an illustration by the renowned naturalist and artist, William John Swainson, from his seminal work "Birds of Western Africa," published in Sir William Jardine's Naturalists Library: Ornithology, in Edinburgh in 1837 by William Lizars. The African Cuckoo-hawk is a distinctive bird of prey native to the savannas and open woodlands of West and Central Africa. With its round-winged, ploceus-brachypterus build, this bird is easily recognizable with its olive-naped head and neck, and its long, pointed wings. The cuckoo-hawk is an intriguing bird due to its unique reproductive behavior, as it lays its eggs in the nests of weaver birds, allowing the weaver bird to raise its young. The intricately detailed handcoloured steel engraving captures the African Cuckoo-hawk's striking features, from its sharp, hooked beak to its elegant, rounded wings. Swainson's masterful illustration, expertly rendered in steel engraving by William Lizars, provides a captivating glimpse into the natural history of this fascinating bird, showcasing its beauty and unique characteristics.
