EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing image captures the moment of discovery when the exotic Promerops species, native to Africa, was observed in an unexpected location during the historic circumnavigatory voyage of La Perouse in 1786. The French explorer, Jean-Francois de Galaup, Comte de La Perouse, and his crew were sailing along the coast of California when they encountered this vibrant bird, a member of the Promerops family, which is typically found in Africa. The Promerops, also known as the Cape Robin-Chat, is a small, agile bird with distinctive red eyes, a black mask, and a bright orange-red bill. Its lively presence among the unfamiliar landscapes of California added an unexpected element to the crew's journey, providing a fascinating glimpse into the natural world beyond their known horizons. The discovery of this bird in North America during La Perouse's voyage was a testament to the vastness and diversity of the natural world, as well as the spirit of exploration and discovery that characterized the age of maritime voyages. This photographic print, from the extensive archives of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the world was still full of surprises and unknown wonders. The Promerops' appearance in California in 1786 not only expanded the scientific knowledge of the time but also added to the rich tapestry of exploratory history. This image serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of discovery and the importance of preserving historical records for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
