EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 379 from John James Audubon's renowned work, "Birds of America," features the vibrant and energetic Rufous Hummingbird, Selasphorus rufus. This exquisite hand-colored aquatint print, engraved and printed by R. Havell (& Son) of London, captures the essence of this small but mighty bird. The Rufous Hummingbird is identified by its distinctive rufous collar, long, straight, and slender bill, and iridescent green back. The illustration depicts the hummingbird in various poses, including perched on a branch with a flower in its beak, feeding from a flower, and in flight. The intricate details of the bird's feathers, the delicate petals of the flower, and the textured branches are all rendered with exceptional precision and artistry. The Rufous Hummingbird is a native of North America and is known for its agility and quick movements. It is an angiosperm specialist, feeding primarily on the nectar of flowering plants. The hummingbird's long bill and rapid wing beats enable it to extract nectar efficiently from deep flowers. The crest on the hummingbird's head is raised, adding to its regal appearance. The bird's daytime activities are depicted in the illustration, showcasing its vibrant colors and active behavior. The Rufous Hummingbird is a beloved species among bird enthusiasts, and this stunning print is a testament to its beauty and importance in the natural world.
