EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 68 from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain, Volume 5 (1873) presents a stunning, hand-coloured lithograph of the Caspian Tern, Sterna caspia. This magnificent avian species, a member of the Charadriiformes order, is depicted in all its glory as it gracefully hovers above the water's edge, ready to plunge its bill into the water for a fishy meal. John Gould's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate anatomy of the Caspian Tern, with its distinctive grey plumage, large, yellow bill, and black leg and foot. The tern's anatomical features are beautifully rendered, showcasing its adaptations for a life spent primarily over water. The Caspian Tern is a large gull-like bird, with a wingspan of up to 120 cm (47 inches). It is a common sight along the Caspian Sea, the Aral Sea, and the Black Sea. This bird is a master of the daytime skies, with its agile flight and keen eyesight making it an expert fisher. The geomorphology of the Caspian Tern's environment is reflected in the background of the illustration, with the rugged cliffs and craggy shoreline providing a dramatic backdrop to the bird's elegant form. The Caspian Tern is a fascinating study in both avian anatomy and the natural world, and this exquisite plate from John Gould's The Birds of Great Britain captures its essence in stunning detail.
