EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor artwork by the renowned Dutch naturalist artist JG Keulemans, featured in Sir Walter Lawry Buller's "A History of the Birds of New Zealand," Vol.2, captures the beauty and grace of two wading bird species native to New Zealand: the Red-necked Avocet (Recurvirostra novaehollandiae) and the Pied Stilt, also known as Poaka (Himantopus leucocephalus). The Red-necked Avocet is characterized by its distinctive red neck, long upcurved bill, and black and white plumage. The Pied Stilt, on the other hand, is easily identified by its black and white plumage with long, thin, black legs. Both species are members of the Charadriiformes order, which includes wading birds and shorebirds. The Red-necked Avocet is found in the shallow waters of the South Island of New Zealand, while the Pied Stilt is widespread throughout New Zealand and Australia. Keulemans' meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate feather patterns, textures, and colors of the birds' plumage. The artist's use of watercolor creates a sense of depth and movement, as if the birds are alive and wading through the water. This artwork is a testament to the natural beauty of New Zealand's avian fauna and the dedication of naturalists like Buller and Keulemans to documenting and preserving it for future generations. The Red-necked Avocet and Pied Stilt continue to be important species in New Zealand's unique ecosystem, and their conservation remains a priority for environmental organizations and governments.
