EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 62 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Volume 3 (1873), presents a stunning hand-coloured lithograph of the Red-billed Chough (Pyrrhocorax pyrrhocorax). This beautiful avian species, a member of the Corvidae family, is depicted in its natural habitat, perched outside on a cliffside with its distinctive red bill and legs contrasting against the rocky background. The intricate anatomy of the Red-billed Chough is showcased in this illustration, revealing the delicate details of its feet and legs, which are well-adapted for gripping and balancing on steep cliffs. The chough's call is also illustrated, with the curved beak slightly open, suggesting the distinctive 'chough' sound it produces. The Red-billed Chough is a resident bird of Europe, North Africa, and western Asia, and is known for its distinctive red bill and legs, which are not only used for foraging but also for balancing on narrow ledges and cliff edges. These birds are often found in mountainous regions, and they build their nests in crevices or burrows in the ground. The geomorphology of the cliffside in this illustration adds to the overall beauty and realism of the image. The daytime setting, with the sun casting long shadows, adds depth and dimension to the scene. The Red-billed Chough is a fascinating bird, both in its appearance and behavior, and this illustration captures its essence perfectly, providing a window into the natural world of the nineteenth century.
