EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration by M.W. Woodcock showcases a vibrant collection of Australian estrildid finches, as depicted in Derek Goodwin's seminal work "Estrildid Finches of the World" published in 1982. The plate, specifically number 2 on page 96, displays an exquisite assemblage of these small, colorful birds. The estrildids are a diverse family of finches native to Africa and Asia, with several species also found in Australia. In this illustration, we find the Blue-breasted, Chestnut-breasted, Crimson-breasted, and Browed finches, among others. Each bird is depicted with remarkable detail, revealing their unique anatomical features. The Blue-breasted Finch, with its striking blue belly and chestnut back, perches confidently on a branch, its head turned towards the viewer, revealing a distinctive collared bib. The Crimson-breasted Finch, as its name suggests, boasts a brilliant red breast, while the Chestnut-breasted Finch sports a warm, chestnut-colored chest. The Browed Finch, with its dark, striped head and yellow belly, adds an intriguing contrast to the other birds. These finches are depicted against the backdrop of angiosperms, or flowering plants, which form an essential part of their diet. As members of the Aves class, and more specifically the Charadriiformes order, these birds are part of the Angiospermae division, which includes all flowering plants. This illustration is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the Australian estrildid finches, and serves as a reminder of the intricate relationships between birds and the angiosperms they rely on for sustenance. Derek Goodwin's work continues to be a valuable resource for ornithologists, bird enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the natural world.
