EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 38 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Vol. 2 (1873) presents a captivating hand-coloured lithograph of the Ring-ouzel, or Turdus torquatus. This intricately detailed illustration showcases the striking features of this enigmatic bird, a member of the family Turdidae. The Ring-ouzel is depicted in its natural habitat, perched on a mossy branch, as it focuses intently on a nearby insect, ready to strike. The Ring-ouzel is a distinctive bird, with its black plumage, white collar, and distinctive orange-red bill. Its hexapod prey, including insects and arthropods, are highlighted in the illustration, providing a glimpse into the bird's diet. The Ring-ouzel is an insectivorous bird, feeding primarily on invertebrates such as beetles, spiders, and earthworms. The illustration captures the Ring-ouzel in its daytime hunting mode, with a fledgling chick peeking out from a nest hidden among the rocks. The Ring-ouzel is known to nest in rocky areas, often in crevices or under ledges, making it well-camouflaged from predators. The Ring-ouzel is a fascinating example of the diversity of the avian world, with its unique appearance and specialized feeding habits. This exquisite illustration from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Vol. 2 (1873) provides a window into the natural history of this intriguing bird, capturing its essence with remarkable accuracy and beauty.
