This illustration, dated 1768, depicts a portable bird-hide, an essential tool for avid bird enthusiasts during the 18th century. The image, taken from "Canarien Bogeln, Gründliche Anweisung alle Arten Vogel zu fangen, einzustellen, abzurichten, zahm zu machen" (Comprehensive Instruction on Catching, Taming, and Training All Kinds of Birds), reveals the intricacies of bird hunting during this era. The portable bird-hide, a ingenious invention, allowed birdwatchers and hunters to conceal themselves from their avian subjects, ensuring a closer and more intimate encounter. The hide, made of woven branches and leaves, is designed to blend seamlessly into the natural environment, enabling the observer to approach birds undetected.
