EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable specimen from the natural history collection at the Royal Cornwall Museum. The image features the skull of a Common Raven, scientifically known as Corvus corax, believed to have been collected in Cornwall, England. As the largest member of the Crow Family and one of the most widely distributed birds worldwide, this majestic creature is truly awe-inspiring. The all-black plumage and distinctive long, wedge-shaped tail make it instantly recognizable. However, it is not just its appearance that sets this bird apart; its intelligence and adaptability are equally impressive. The Common Raven can thrive in diverse habitats due to its ability to quickly learn and adjust to new environments. Collected by Mr and Mrs V. S. Paton, passionate collectors with an affinity for avian specimens, this particular raven skull represents both scientific curiosity and appreciation for nature's wonders. It serves as a testament to their dedication in preserving biological treasures for future generations. Displayed through taxidermy techniques with meticulous attention to detail, this photograph captures not only the beauty but also the educational value of such collections. Through studying these bones carefully curated by avid collectors like Mr and Mrs V. S. Paton, scientists gain valuable insights into avian biology within the Corvidae family – passerines belonging to Passeriformes order.
