EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured steel engraving depicts the Lizard Buzzard, scientifically known as Kaupifalco monogrammicus, also referred to as the Black-chinned Goshawk or the Senegal Pied Crow-hawk. The image is based on an illustration by the renowned naturalist and illustrator, William John Swainson, from his comprehensive work, "Birds of Western Africa," published in Sir William Jardine's Naturalists Library: Ornithology, in Edinburgh in 1837. The Lizard Buzzard is a medium-sized bird of prey, native to the savannas and woodlands of West and Central Africa. It is characterized by its distinctive black chin, white back, and short, curved beak. The bird is shown perched on a rocky outcrop, surveying its surroundings with keen, intelligent eyes. The intricate details of the Lizard Buzzard's plumage and anatomy are beautifully rendered in this handcoloured print, which showcases the exceptional skill of the engraver, William Lizars. The Lizard Buzzard is a versatile and opportunistic hunter, feeding on a wide range of prey, including reptiles, rodents, and birds. Its agility and stealth make it a formidable predator in its natural habitat. This image offers a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of Western Africa and the remarkable natural history discoveries of the 19th century.
