EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored steel engraving showcases the captivating beauty of the Willie Wagtail, Rhipidura leucophrys, also known as the Whiskered Fantail or Leucocirca laticauda. The image is taken from Sir William Jardine's Naturalist's Library: Ornithology, Volume II, Flycatchers, published in Edinburgh by W.H. Lizars in 1836. The illustration was created by the renowned naturalist and artist, William Swainson, and expertly engraved by William Lizars. The Willie Wagtail is a small, agile bird native to Australia and New Guinea. Known for its distinctive behavior, it is named for the way it wags its tail from side to side as it moves. This bird is a flycatcher, which means it catches its prey in mid-air. Its diet consists mainly of insects, spiders, and other invertebrates. The Willie Wagtail's plumage is a stunning combination of black, white, and blue-grey. The male and female have similar appearances, with the female being slightly less colorful. The bird's most notable feature is its long, white whiskers, which give it an almost comical appearance. This intricately detailed engraving captures the essence of the Willie Wagtail's unique appearance and character. The use of hand-coloring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a true work of art. The Willie Wagtail remains a beloved and iconic bird in Australia, and this beautiful engraving is a testament to its enduring appeal.
