EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing image, hand-colored steel engraving by du Casse after an illustration by Adolph Fries from the "Dictionnaire Pittoresque d'Histoire Naturelle" (Picturesque Dictionary of Natural History) published in Paris between 1834 and 1839, showcases two fascinating bird species: the Common Magpie (Pica pica) and the White-throated Magpie-Jay (Calocitta formosa). The Common Magpie, with its distinctive black and white plumage and long, curved beak, is a familiar sight in many parts of Europe and Asia. The White-throated Magpie-Jay, native to Central and South America, boasts iridescent blue and green feathers, a white throat, and a red patch on its lower back. The scene captivates us as it depicts a Common Magpie in the act of incubating an egg, while a White-throated Magpie-Jay looks on curiously. The magpie's intense focus on her nest is a testament to the deep bond between these birds and their offspring. The White-throated Magpie-Jay, on the other hand, is often described as a "jay in magpie's clothing," as it mimics the black and white plumage of the Common Magpie to blend in with its environment and deceive potential predators. This image, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, offers a glimpse into the natural world and the intriguing relationships between different species. The common magpie, or "pie commune," and the white-throated magpie-jay, or "pie commandeur," are a reminder of the beauty and diversity of the avian kingdom.
